flying1499 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 Why is it that they go into all sorts of topics in flight training, which dont help you fly, but the is not even one paragraph about the paint, not even one sentence? Im begining to think transport canada does not require aircrafts to be painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrayHorizons Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 troll or not, everyone starts on a forum at some point. paint doesnt help you fly either FYI specifically are you referring to the finish paint? like whether its a pretty blue helicopter, or a bad *** black one? I personally have a soft spot for yellow ones. Its all covered in the aircraft manufacturers documents. I dont feel that TC needs to micro manage the color you paint your helicopter as long as you follow the manufacturers recommendations for initial application and repairs during its life. Airbus specifies all of this in the MTC's. TC has already approved the aircraft for flight in Canada, regardless of the paint scheme. I am pretty sure all aircraft take their first flights in primer only. I'm making an assumption this is how they are birthed and certified. I dont know that process, so I'm just guessing if your talking about rotor blades or components paint most of that is also covered in the manufacturers documents as well Maybe you have severe OCD and the paint chips are bothering you? Talk to your maintenance staff and let them get our a brush and touch it up till you're satisfied?? so then, can you elaborate on what your beef with TC and the connection to the paint is? you can leave the bottle on the table for awhile while you find your words of you need to.
