Q - Why do the Boeing people hose down the tarmac in front of the paint hanger just before pulling the aircraft out?
It's pretty cold at altitude so that probably helps.Looks great, but I wonder how the air conditioning will cope?
(For the non-scientific amongst you, black objects absorb heat whereas white/light colours reflect it. They should, however, pick up a weight gain, as black pigments are not as heavy as white)

A huge generalisation I know.. but I like this paint job not only because I think it looks good/striking... but because so many airlines have such dull paint schemes...
Nice to see something a bit "out there"!
I'd like a good quality photo of it parked next to the All-Black A320!

Surely as black sucks up more light it will get heavier?![]()
