Hi,

What planes are made from? The Body of the plane? Wings? Tail?


from the old B707 to B777 and A340-600..

Any Idea about the new B787 & A350?

Thanks>

aren't planes part of the matrix, and are really only computer generated images?

and those big trails they leave in the sky, that really is a memory washing gas. isn't it?

Glass, rubber, titanium alloys, aluminium alloys (2024-T3 & 6061-T6 very much used), copper, glass-reinforced plastics, carbon-fibre composites, acrylonitrile plastics, steel, hastelloy, synthetic fibres, some ceramic components, natural fibres, polytetrafluoro-ethylene and derivatives, some gold, some silver, some other stuff (silicon, ruby, etc) as well, depending on the manufacturer, equipment fit, customer options etc etc. This list is far from exhaustive. Some aircraft have genuine wood in them as well.
