@boataxe4605 I wouldn't think so. You can't obstruct them in any way.

@whatsonyourchannel you make a reasonable point but you have an unusual definition of contained. What if the cowling hit a person on the ground or even a bus. Basically what you have is shrapnel falling from the sky. It was very fortunate that people weren't killed or injured even though the engine parts didn't hit the aircraft fuselage. We didn't overlook it at all.

perhaps they should have beams along the side of the runway that alarm when broken. they would only need to be activated after the truck had done its runway check.

@aserta yes unless it is a safety matter leave it alone if you can.

Vedant Ganesh bare finishes on aircraft is also a pain in the bum during manufacture. I remember when we built flaps for 727s that were for bare finish aircraft. We had to leave blue strippable coating on the alloy and you just could not get any fingerprints on it.
