So if you saw several rivets in a row on the fuselage popped out, that would an item of concern. A single missing rivet would not be a concern. | |

Any airplane that's been deiced earlier will probably be dripping some reddish or greenish fluid from various places. Fuel can be seen sometimes dripping while fueling. 3: Overheating packs smell like burning, but isn't a big problem. 4: Many airplanes have hydraulic doors or panels that sag. 5: Some airplanes require gear pins (with flags) to be installed for push-back. 6: Not all airplanes use this method. 2 and 7 are the only ones that are possibilities. | |
