Duct Tape – its just a joke when said “it fixes everything!”

What you DON'T want to see from your Airplane Window!!

Here is a comment regarding the tape.

“The stuff is called speed tape; is far stronger than your garden variety duct tape; and is FAA-approved for all manner of common temporary repairs (some surprisingly large).

It’s quite common in the industry, but still unsettling when you see them putting it on or - as once happened to me, also in a developing country - see it peeling off a wing on take off. “

“it was also used to quickly repair military equipment, including jeeps, guns, and aircraft”

OK – I am now officially scared
