A test flight in Tamarack’s active winglet-equipped Citation CJ3.
by Rich Pickett
Tamarack Aerospace Group has been developing and installing winglets on members of the Cessna Citation 525 series for several years now. They began with the CJ1 (525) in 2013 and received FAA certification
in December 2016, followed by EASA approval a year later (Dianne White wrote about that particular installation in the February 2017 issue).
After declaring success with the CJ1, Tamarack proceeded with the certification on the Citation CJ2 (525A) and Citation CJ3 (525B), which was received in April 2018 and February 2018, respectively. Now, with over 50 Citations flying with Tamarack winglets, it is gaining wide acceptance among the f leet. Lucky for me, I was recently invited to f ly their Citation CJ3 equipped with the company’s latest design and see what the commotion is all about.
