But it’s masking tape. Proper procedure for safe airplane window blowout repair calls for duct tape on the cardboard.
Yeah thats for international flights mate, did you even care to check if this was domestic?? Plane tape regulations vary statewise
Of course masking tape is fine for domestic flights. I thought it was pretty obvious this was an international flight but I’ll explain to those who aren’t paying attention.
The pax is reading about (American) football which means it’s late fall/early winter in the US. However, as he is dressed in shorts and sandals, he is clearly traveling to Panama for vacation. It’s obviously a direct international flight from Cleveland to Panama in November.
They should be using duct tape.
I assumed it was aerospace grade masking tape.
Totally fine. The inside window isn't the important one. It's just a plastic cover for the real window on the outside.
Yup, clearly no one has actually ever looked at their window on a plane. There is clearly a hole in it.

I'll only fly in that plane if the maintenance tech patted that two times and said "yep, that's not going anywhere."
Required procedure in the airframe standard practices.
That's aviation structural cardboard, perfectly safe.
looks good to me
Obvious bait is obvious.
Look at how much legroom that dude has. There's no way this photo is real.
