I would've hated to have been the one driving that tug AND, did they buff it out before the 1st revenue flight?

If it hadn't been circled I wouldn't have known it was there.

You are both correct. No one could see it and after the flight, it will probably just blend in.LOL

I can imagine the pilot saying "Hey dad I had a slight little problem with the new car, urr - I meant the new plane"

I hope all the airlines flying composite planes can get their mechanics certified to do field repairs quickly. Every A&P can repair aluminum, but they will need special certified training and equipment to make damaged composites airworthy again. Cirrus requires factory engineering approval and new engineering drawings to repair major structural damage like a crushed wing leading edge.

I just wonder how many have thought of that while placing orders for these planes. There have been composite parts around for a good while but not a whole plane.
