Here we go again: ground equipment 1 aircraft 0. Congestion, fixation with OTD, etc., etc. Will ground-handling companies never learn? ( I also understand that past-Covid, there are high turnovers of ramp staff, so this may be a contributory factor).

That won't buff out so easily nor will copious amounts of speed tape help.

No in the Static Port protected area like that it's a big repair. It's wheel out your best skin man too. At Dan-Air we had a brilliant skin man, came to us from Woodford, can't for the life of me remember his name, Andy ?
I reckon there is a good two weeks work there, minimum, that's after a repair scheme is devised.

I'm sure that's not how you open the cargo hatch.
