I believe you're correct. I seem to recall seeing a picture of a A330 in KLM colors taking off with one winglet missing. I'll try and find it.

EDIT:

Wrong. KLM 747 PH-BFA http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0983281/L/

I guess exp96 is also correct about the 744 CDL!

For your enjoyment or curiosity or whatever, here's some pictures of some more clipped birds.

EDIT2:
Finally figured out how to insert HTML. Good thing I know about technology, with all those computers flying us around. Ugh. Maybe not. This is frustrating. OK Finally figured it out.
