Structure

The integrity of an airframe structure and its associated components is paramount not only for the protection of the passengers, but also to cope with the ever changing environment for which they are exposed.

Corrosion resistant materials are used in areas where strength and resistance to the elements are mandatory. Aluminium and titanium are used in areas where lightness and strength are a priority. Heat treatment thermal processes are carried out in order to fulfil the required material properties and design requirements.
