Why are there several overlapping coats of paint that are peeling off? I thought this was the new and flashy Boeing plane? The airline was Scoot.

    • Wing flexing → causes microcracks in paint
    • UV exposure → leads to fading and degradation
    • Temperature changes → cause thermal stress
    • Chemicals (de-icing fluids, fuel) → damage coating
    • Maintenance wear → walking, tools cause abrasion
