Saw a BA 777 reg# VIIF in BWI yesterday with a nice Biff in the left wing leading edge towards the tip. Approximately 2 feet long 10 inchs into the leading edge.
Rumor has it, twas a light pole!

Its all right - the 767 takes over the route again soon. Sounds like one less light pole to avoid now anyway...

It's bad enough with ramp guys backing into planes, and coach drivers driving into fuel trucks that are trying to refuel aircraft!
Or is that only natural at Stansted

When the BWI airport authority do construction work and then paint multiple lines it becomes a bit difficult. The 777 knocked over a big, unlighted, light pole.
Also in mitigation ATC sent him that way and with all the construction lights glaring it is easy to lose sight of which line of several to follow.
There with luck, I did not go!!
