Aviation Composite Materials (HD, 3D, S3D)

This video looks at aircraft composite construction but the application are not limited to aviation. These materials are also used in the maritime and automotive industry to build boats and cars. Composite Materials can be as strong as metals but are very light weight. Composite Materials consist of light weight core material bonded between a fiber reinforced plastic. There are different types of fibers that can be used typically use fibers include carbon fiber, glass fiber and aramid fiber (kevlar) . Typical core material include foam or a honeycomb designed material. Foam can easily cut using a hot wire technique.

@circusboy90210 market forces would force them to reduce prices to some degree. Initially there would be very little, if any savings passed to the customer due to the costly investment required to obtain such assets. The cost of that investment would have to be allocated to various cost pools within the structure of that airline. Eventually, as those aircraft begin to depreciate, savings would find their way to the customer. I would be more concerned the gov limiting the availability of fuel...

you believe he greedy shareholders care to pass the savings on to the consumer?? that would be cutting into their profit.
