Winglets for SZD55

As an owner of a SZD 55 I am interested in the comments of Peter Masak about winglets on the 55, but couldnt find the above mentioned results when typing Peter Masak SZD55 into google - does anyone here have a link? Anyway, I'd also like to see pictures of a 55 with winglets, just out of pure curiousity - simply cant imagine how winglets work and look like with the very special shape of the 55 wings. BTW - wasnt the 55 wing especially designed to work without winglets, turbulator tape etc.? Regards, Michail Here is the Canadian 55 with winglets http://home.silentflight.ca/gallery/...c32020ba2c4bcd Legend has it that these were factory prototype winglets from before SZD went bankrupt in the 90's Luke
