give it time you will see them with the Part 25 Duct tape all over them

Come on, Hulas is too cheap to paint the radomes. Do you really think that we'll ever have anything nice?

Theres an idea...speed tape the leading edges. And then some crome spray paint...good as new.

you know it

think during the last year, i've managed to see one (shiny) leading edge...well, pieces of it, that were new and put in to replace a most likely dented section...have seen one or two shiny engine lips though...on the CRJ's you see, they're all shiny, ERJ's...not so much. Especially TSA ones. But we don't care, we have awesome white raydomes.

The XR's have shiny leading edges.

if you see one with shiney new parts you can thank the rampers or the tug drivers.... they are only replaced when necessary (aka someone hit it)
