* Most of the current fleet of aircraft is composed primarily of aluminum. * In the early days aircraft were made from canvas stretched over a wooden frame & then painted. * Some new aircraft are made of fiberglass or carbon composites. * Some small aircraft are composed of an aluminum frame with mylar stretched over in the same way wood and canvas was used.
alluminum
Mostly from cast aluminium.
Most of aircraft fuselages are made of aluminium alloys
aluminium
titanium
Steel is used to make aircraft springs.
The relevant service manual for that aircraft.
Depending on the aircraft, the wings can be made of Steel (Only older planes), Wood (REALLY old planes), Aluminum (Common today), Or Carbon Fiber (used in Military jets)
It depends on the general construction of the aircraft. Commonly used material are: aluminum, wood, cloth, and fiberglass. BTW, what are slats??
Aircraft are made of many different material's. the body and wings of an aircraft are usually made of a copper aluminum compound which has been age hardened to cope with the forces seen during flight. As technology advances we are now seeing aircraft being built of carbon fibre. Currently the only carbon fibre aircraft being produced is the 787 dreamlinerThey are usually made from Aluminum Alloys - Because it is light and strong :)A lot of planes are made of aluminum to make the shassie as light as possible. Butsome are made of steel.
Mostly aluminium.
