Comair CRJ700s
Has anyone noticed the row of "patched bullet holes" down the sides of Comair's CRJ700s? I used to see them all the time on walkarounds.
They look like a wavy line of repair spots going down the fuselage sides from the nose to wing. Maybe 10-12 spots, with a foot or two between them. They look like a bad bondo job with a crappy coat of paint slapped on top, each the size of a drink coaster.
I always wondered what they were, but never remembered to ask anyone before Comair shut the doors.
Do other guys have these on their 700s?

You are right. The lightning strikes I've seen create this kind of line, it might not be a straight line, maybe a little curve in it, but sure sounds like a lightning strike.
