Not a rumour anymore, i've been told there is a BA one now on the ground with similar damage (400 series). Same maint company responsible.
No idea what'll happen to it but maybe repairs aren't out of the question, just a few weeks of sheety work reqd?
Cause apparently due to removal of sealant causing scratches that could easily turn into cracks.
FLS is the name I've heard, looks like Ryaniar aren't trying it on....
