A wing/winglet configuration, which basically comprises: (a) a wing having upper and lower wing surfaces, a wing leading edge, a wing trailing edge, and a wing tip; and (b) a winglet having upper and lower winglet surfaces, a winglet leading edge, a winglet trailing edge, and a winglet tip, where the winglet is mounted to the wing tip at a winglet/wing tip intersection and extends upwardly from the wing tip Aft portions of the upper wing surface and upper winglet surface are flattened near the winglet/wing tip intersection to substantially reduce flow separation near wing/winglet intersection.
