Aircraft windows are made of Plexiglas. They are triple layered so air can flow between the layers for defogging.

Why do you have to open the windows on a plane?

Opening windows on a plane is not necessary because commercial aircraft windows are designed to remain closed during flight. The windows are made of strong materials to withstand the high pressure and altitude changes experienced during flight. Opening windows could compromise the safety and structural integrity of the aircraft.


How many passenger windows are on each side of a Boeing 737?

It depends on which 737 aircraft it is. The 737 aircraft has been made in many variations -100, -200 etc through to -900 all of which have a different number. Freighter conversions have no passenger windows

Do airplane windows open?

Yes airplane windows open. On passenger jets most windows in the cabin are not designed to open. There are normally two windows in the flight deck that open. On small personal aircraft the windows are normally designed to be opened. Windows can be opened in flight as long as the cabin is not pressurized. Normally pressurization of the cabin happens in larger aircraft and above 10 000 feet where oxygen is not as plentiful as it is on the ground. When flying that high aircraft are normally pressurized and so that the conditions of hypoxia (lack of oxygen to the brain) do not affect the crew or passengers. Windows are not designed to be opened at high altitiudes and likely can not be opened due to the pressure asserted on the aircraft's frame. Small areas where air can escape from a pressurized cabin, such as a window, can have dire consequences if the difference in pressure inside and outside of the aircraft cause a rapid cabin decompression.

Aircraft can be made of almost anything. The first ones were only wood and cloth.

What is the benefit of having die cast aircraft versus other types of aircraft?

The benefit of diecast aircraft versus other aircraft is that diecast is made up of metal alloys as opposed to other toy aircraft which can be made of plastic and not as structurally sound.

Why don't airplanes have bathroom windows?

Aircraft bathrooms are manufactured as a complete module which is installed by the aircraft manufacturer to the customer requirements. There location on the aircraft as well as the number installed is an option for the customer to choose. The modular construction allows their removal or installation at a later date if the customer wishes to change the aircraft configuration. No windows are installed to the unit as the position of the module is variable and may not align with a window aperture in the fuselage.
