I watched a Delta 747 take off today minus a winglet on the left wing. That seems like an awfully odd thing to have missing. Are winglets on the 747 CDL list and what restrictions would that bring with it? Just the curiousity of a Saab driver.

Do you really think a 747 crew would take off minus a winglet if it was not legal?
It could have been the plane that was tagged in Manilla by a Qatar A330 while he was pushing back. If it was flying, it probably is legal, or that FO overlooked a HUGE discrepancy on the walkaround. I would think he might have come from Manilla via Nagoya, and maybe was flying to a facility to get that fixed? Just a guess.
Godspeed!

No, gramps. It was just a question, not an accusation. I figured it was a CDL item. Thanks for your informative input on this thread, though.Do you really think a 747 crew would take off minus a winglet if it was not legal?
