The Kuwait Airways 777 mystery in Paris CDG - plane spotting 

Looks beautiful 😍 Nicely captured 👌

so the red colour means its a type 1 de-icing fluid, (can be used for anti icing as well, but that's usually only done with type 2 and type 4 because of better hold over times), the de-icing platforms are usually pretty close to the runway, hence his taxi, possible reason was cold soaked wings because of humid air and cold fuel in tanks, usually there will be tankering fuel uplifted from the departure airport (for Kuwait airways this is Kuwait) because the fuel is a lot cheaper there and it can be beneficiary to take some extra fuel for the return journey. Because the cold temperature at cruising level this fuel will cool down to below 0 degrees celsius and when you land you might get hoar frost or condensation from the air on your wings. Because according to every airlines operations manual you need to leave with clean wings he had to de-ice. this can happen well above 10 degrees celsius.

Phenomenal capture! And as always keep up the wonderful work and much grateful and looking forward for more amazing contents from you any day, apex hopes you had a great week as evermore, and keep doing your bests regardless of any challenges that arise for it is always fantastic and rewarding to seeing the everyday progress excel instantaneously, as always it’s a monumental honour and privilege to present you my best support as the time prevails! 💯✈️💫✨⚡️🍀🥇

According to KAC the airplane was delayed and was de-iced twice, there was a light rain and temperatures went below 10C so the pilot requested de-icing again.

He probably got a call on his cellular line from his wife telling him not to forget to bring home a litre of milk when he returns.

Nice video !

Maybe they were just doing some training. The actual application time seemed very short. Hayabusafalcon. World traveler.

Seemed to strip off dark blue paint.

Possible Cold fuel although i do not know why the tail was sprayed cold fuel is when the plane comes in with a large amount of fuel still on board and the fuel being cold causes the wings to ice up so need deicing now and then. When i worked at heathrow Saudi used to request deicing when the temperature is not freezing. They may of decided it did not need doing then while taxiing to the runway realised they did.

It's not warm up there kiddo!

Its a de-icing.
