cavok Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 I noticed that some AC B767's have two black stripes on each wing about 6 feet from the fuselage and outward of the passenger evacuation arrows. What are these stripes for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av8tr Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 could it be the representative area for a wing inspection when looking for ice or snow on the wing prior to take-off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest buswrench Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 traditionally,some carriers use black stripes on the wing as a visual aid in detecting ice accumulation,which makes the black turn to grey or white.I believe the former CAIL airplanes had this while AC did not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
