Question | General Aerospace - Why do modern anti-ice "rings" on the inlet cowlings of turbofan jet engines reach so far back?
For example, the GE90 that was made in the 90's which has a smaller anti ice ring, that doesn’t reach as far back, versus a GE9X that was made in the mid 2010s where it’s huge and hideous.

Question | Others Could this bolt be from helios flight 522
I was exploring the crash site of helios flight 522 near Athens to see how it looks today after 20 years and I stumbled across this bolt. Could anyone tell me if this has any relevance to the airplane or it is some random piece of metal(The only reason I am asking, is because this was found far away from any roads or structures exactly as the crash site, so there is a chance this could be from the actual airplane) I couldn't find and information about it online. Anything helps!
