Very cool. Interesting that it doesn't have those little "winglets" on the end of the wings like most are doing nowadays.

They are integrated Into the wings already so they don't need the winglets. If you look closely at the new Boeing wings you'll see they pitch up a lot more than older planes.

Yup. First thing I noticed was the pitch of the wings.
