That red stuff inside the turbine intakes, what is it? The kind of cover they put in when the planes are in storage? So that whole photo is staged?

- nradov 2y agoOf course it's a staged publicly photo. That's nothing unusual. The "red stuff" is just regular turbine intake covers that are commonly used when certain aircraft are parked outside.
- dmix 2y agoThere's a picture of it in flight in the article...
- bo0tzz 2y agoThe article mentions it being shown at the Paris Air Show with exhibit code H-239. I'm pretty sure that's what the picture is from.
