Are the black lines on this Boeing 777 non slip walk ways. Or do they serve some other purpose. A PPL friend of mine wishes to know and I can’t answer him.
Thanks for your time and trouble.

Link/image doesn't seem to work. Best to use Go Advanced/Preview Post first.
As a general rule (not specific to the 777), most airliner types have areas delineated on the wing to show where you can and can't walk.

blob: isn't part of the url, get rid of it.
Neither url you tried to post is an image file.
Your link should look something like https://website.com/filelocation/file.jpg
For that matter your links are invalid and don't appear to go anywhere.

In which case the URL ought to look something like this: i.e. pointing to a previously uploaded file.

David, this black line, when viewed from the horizontal stabiliser-mounted ground maneouvre camera system, indicates the approximate position of the maingear outer wheel under the wing if it cannot be seen in low vis conditions. This is helpful on tight taxiways, corners, etc.
The 200 models, being shorter, don't have this system and so do not (I think!) have the black lines.

Problem solves.
Your time and trouble appreciated.
