The A380 uses sheets of a material manufactured by bonding glass fibre to thin sheets of Aluminium, known as 'GLARE' (GLAss-REinforced fibre metal laminate). This is much lighter than the thicker Aluminium sheets normally used, but more resistant to impact damage.they tested it by fiering a chickin gun at it to see if it would mamage it at take off speed.
