The A320 Family is now offering two wingtip device, the two are the wingtip fence and the shark let. The problem in the AE server is the wingtips are NOT available yet when the A320 is released so instead of disabling the wingtip until 2012, can't we just have another upgrade selection after 2012? This will make the wingtip device on A320 not being confusing. Also, upon this, can't we just add a button where we can add the winglets on a lot of aircraft in a time? It will save a lot of time.

The main point of this is there are wingtip devices installed on A320 from the first delivery till 2012.

The 'winglets' you refer to on the A320 family from 'first' production to 2012 (prior to Sharklets) are just Airbus wing-fences. The wing-fence is the only main difference between the -100 and -200 of the A320. So that goes against your point of 'they have been since first delivery'.

Basically, Sharklets are the only time winglets currently get added the A320 family, there is no error there.

The game does not support different types of winglets (AE 4 will though), so we'll probably just ignore the new winglets until then.

How About ENgine Enchancement like in Real Life? Manufactures always try to improve the fuel economy. Can we have it in here? Maybe a column in detail about specific updates on the engine and winglets.

As these are requests relating to the structure of AE itself, rather than an aircraft request as such, I will move it to a more appropriate area.
