The sheeple wouldn’t have had to watch in horror if 200 of them had rather been watching from the terminal. I wouldn’t have just sat there!

Passengers watched in horror as ground crew put the tape around the edge of the windscreen shortly before take-offLemmings. They should have been ex-passengers headed out the door to the nearest bus stop.

Should have used NASCAR’s 200 mph duct tape.

I’m pretty sure there’s a difference between duct tape you get in Walmart and aviation tape.

Electric Boat General Dynamics in Groton Ct used to tape the hull penetrations with “3m” Duct Tape when they removed something, we called it EB Green. One of the subs they were building didn’t detect the hull taped opening before sea trials and dove to test depth with no leaks on the tape. 440 lbs/sq/in and it held. Good stuff. Lasts forever.

If I cant fix it with either duct tape or crazy glue, it just stays broken!

Rayanair using duct tape for airplane structural repairs? Who cares. Apparently there is no need to be looking outside the aircraft and it's condition when they still hire hot Stewardesses.
Looks a lot nicer than the moody gay guy I usually get stuck with on domestic flights.

no big deal so long as the tape wasn’t lifting up on an edge, which it probably was in this case.
I used duct tape to fix a leak on a ten foot aluminum boat once.
It started leaking, we figured were, got to shore and flipped the thing over.
sure enough there was a hole. Taped it over it a couple three times and dropped it back in the water.
My friend started jumping up and down in the boat to test it yelling “Thar she blows! To Davies Locker with y’all!”.
My brother and I hopped in and we spent the afternoon fishing.
Favorite fishing hole and nothing was going to stop us.
I think we left it in that condition for three or four more trips and they fixed it.
I use the stuff for hot spots on my feet and ankle when I hike or snowboard. Better than mole skin as it creates a slippery surface for your socks and boots to mover over.
Recently I have been using the stuff for a shoulder injury.
I put on a Tiger Balm patch and to keep in place I tape a lateral edge on the top of the bandage so my shirt won’t catch it and lift it off. Then I tape an x pattern so I can move my shoulder in any direction and it keeps the patch on all day long.

Duct tape is like The Force. It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
The only 2 tools you need are WD-40 and duct tape. If it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40.

High speed tape is a perfectly acceptable repair. It’s aluminum, not fabric like duct tape and costs a lot more.
