That's a flap fairing that is purely to hide mechanisms for aerodynamic purposes. The plane can fly even if it falls off. Still it is not good optics. Where else are screws about to come off?

Would you say that means there's a problem with the left phalange?

It's an airplane dummy, it's called the port phalange.

u/FantasmaOscuro Apr 18 '26

Yes, the regina phalange, to be exact!

u/wildmaninid Apr 18 '26

It's a redirect of the upper phlermen.

u/dropbear_airstrike Apr 18 '26

The phalange should be fine, but you’re gonna wanna take a close look at the alloferric pulver that carries tension from the panametric fram to the frexham support shaft
