Every aircraft is washed regularly. This process involves cleaning the engines as well as the aircraft shell. Not only does a wash make an aircraft sparkle, but it also restores it outstanding aerodynamic properties. Less aerodynamic drag means lower fuel consumption - and this keeps the carbon dioxide emissons down in turn. An aircraft´s engines may have to be cleaned following a bird strike. But deposits and particles of dirt are also removed efficiently with the help of water and detergents. Greater engine power and lower fuel consumption are achieved.
