"We will conserve 17 to 21 million gallons in fuel annually for the
B767-300ER fleet," said Bob Reding, American's Senior Vice President -
Technical Operations. "Once we install winglets on all of our current
Boeing 737, Boeing 757, and the B767-300 fleet, we will be saving over
42 million gallons of fuel per year."
Besides the compelling cost savings, this fuel burn improvement also
results in a reduction of 423,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions
annually. CO2 is believed to be a contributor to climate change.
