Video - Why is there a spiral on the spinner cone of an aircraft engine ?

- By

Maybe you've already noticed on aircraft engines, specifically on the cone in the centre of the fan, a painted white spiral but it is not there just to look pretty. So what is the purpose of this spiral ? Some people think that is to scare birds.

But watch the video to find out. The answer is at the end of the video.
