By Christine Boynton | September 28, 2012
LAN Airlines has ordered an additional 10 Aviation Partners Boeing
(APB) Blended Winglet systems for Boeing 767-300ER passenger and
freighter aircraft.
The carrier has already ordered 47 of the systems.
"The positive fuel savings performance achieved by the Blended Winglet program on the operating LAN Boeing 767 fleet convinced the airline to continue with this program on the newly purchased 767-300s,” LATAM VP-fleet projects Justin Siegel said.
The carrier has selected Delta Tech Ops and Mexicana MRO to perform these modifications, he said.
