Tech/Engineering - Aerospace / Aviation / Space / Airworthiness certificate
French term or phrase: carènes de voilure
Note in the Airworthiness certificate:

Les avions XXX modifiés selon le Bulletin Service XXX (incluant des carènes de voilure agrandies et modifications diverses pour réduction de trainée) satisfont aux mêmes spécifications et font l'objet des mêmes limitations que le modèle de base décrit dans cette fiche.

Can't seem to find what this refers to.

Any help much appreciated.

wing fairing
Explanation:
I would never use hull in this case. If you ever meet "carêne de voilure profilé", please use "streamiled wing fairing" as this wing will become streammlined because it has a fairing fitted bto it
