Original Note:
This is not duct tape as the tweet claims. This is "speed tape,” a type of tape made of pure aluminum and designed specifically for use on aircraft. It's used to perform temporary, minor repairs on non-critical parts of an aircraft until more permanent fixes can be made. https://www.washingtonpost.com/travel/2022/10/05/plane-duct-tape-speed-tape/
