Interesting! Those remind me of the raked wingtips on the mighty t7.

That chopper looks killer!
Love the Tiger accents on the side!

I think the Merlin shows the most advanced and biggest curves on the tips...
I bet these choppers will fly past you and you will be expecting a small chopper for the noise it made!

I wonder if GA airplanes have these!
