Minutes after takeoff from Denver International Airport, our Southwest Airlines flight takes the sharp turn toward the east and toward our final destination of Kansas City.
From my window seat on our Boeing 737, a view of the Southwest Winglet and the Denver Skyline and the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains.

Winglet
This picture was taken during the descent towards the Bergamo Airport [BGY/LIME], flight 4643 from Bratislava [BTS/LZIB].
A very nice flight, with lots of spectacular (and treacherous!) clouds surrounding us: as the captain told me at the end of the flight, we we were vectored to avoid them.
Then, direct to BEG VOR for the ILS - X, runway 28.
Notice the speedbrakes deployed.
The night I took this photo I didn't plan on stumbling into one of the better displays of aurora that I've caught...had been watching the data and checking the cloud situation on the satellite and decided that there was enough of a chance that I'd go take a look. After this test shot out at Auroraville I decided to drive north a bit, for whatever reason. Just kept going north and my gut was telling me something good was going to happen. Eventually I wound up near Tigerton, WI as the aurora finally popped...spent the next few hours taking it all in.

Now fitted with 'Split Scimitar' winglets.
First flown as G-TAWM and the re-registered N5515R for some Boeing test flights, this aircraft was delivered to the TUI Travel Plc and leased to Thomson Airways as G-TAWM in Feb-13. It's winglets were replaced by 'Split Scimitar' winglets in Nov-14. The aircraft was sub-leased to Sunwing Airlines (Canada) as C-GQWM in Dec-15 and returned to Thomson Airways as G-TAWM in Apr-16. The Thomson titles were changed to billboard 'TUI' titles in Mar-17 prior to the expected re-naming of the company to TUI Airlines UK in Oct-17. Current. (updated Apr-17).
My first catch of a Boeing 737 equipped with APB Split Scimitar Winglets.

John works on our TAC team at Calgary Airport and took this long exposure shot for Winglet Wednesday. Do you love it as much as we do?
Southwest uses these wingtip extensions called "winglets" to make the 737 more aerodynamic and save fuel, which helps them keep ticket prices low. This shot was taken at about 21,000 feet over Indiana en route to Chicago.
Happy Winglet Wednesday! You may recognize this photo from page 64 our March 2011 edition of up! magazine. Ryan, on our Calgary TAC team, won our internal photo competition with this pic and his reward (other than bragging rights) is an up! mention and being featured on WestJet's Facebook and Twitter profiles. Let him know what you think of his pic.
