Airbus and Boeing are the dominant assemblers of large jet airliners while ATR, Bombardier and Embraer lead the regional airliner market; many manufacturers produce airframe structural components.airframe structural design The airframe of a fixed-wing aircraft consists of five principal units: the fuselage, wings, stabilizers, flight control surfaces, and landing gear. Helicopter airframes consist of the fuselage, main rotor and related gearbox, tail rotor (on helicopters with a single main rotor), and the landing gear. Airframe structural components are constructed from a wide variety of materials. The earliest aircraft were constructed primarily of wood. Steel tubing and the most common material, aluminum, followed. Many newly certified aircraft are built from molded composite materials, such as carbon fiber. Structural members of an aircraft’s fuselage include stringers, longerons, ribs, bulkheads, and more. The main structural member in a wing is called the wing spar. The skin of aircraft can also be made from a variety of materials, ranging from impregnated fabric to plywood, aluminum, or composites. Under the skin and attached to the structural fuselage are the many components that support airframe function. The entire airframe and its components are joined by rivets, bolts, screws, and other fasteners. Welding, adhesives, and special bonding techniques are also used. Wing Skin Often, the skin on a wing is designed to carry part of the flight and ground loads in combination with the spars and ribs. This is known as a stressed-skin design. The all-metal, full cantilever wing section shows the structure of one such design. The lack of extra internal or external bracing requires that the skin share some of the load. Notice the skin is stiffened to aid with this function.

Less Flights... More Fatalities? Airline Accident Fatalities Rise in 2020

Despite a historic drop in airline activity in 2020 because of COVD-19-related travel restrictions, fatal accidents in 2020 were just as high as in recent years with normal commercial flying activity. 2019 had four-to-five times the number of flights flown in 2020, and 2020 saw more fatalities. Globally, there were 12 fatal airline accidents in 2020, resulting in deaths of 332 passengers and crew compared with 22 fatal accidents and 297 fatalities in 2019 when the commercial airline activity was operating a a normal level in 2019. There were four jet accidents in 2020, three of which were the result of poorly planned and badly executed approaches to serviceable aircraft in conditions that should not have been a problem for the crews. These accidents were Pegasus Airlines Flight 2193 at Istanbul on February 5, Pakistan International Airlines Flight 8303 that crashed in Model Colony May 22, and Air India Express Flight 1344 that overran a runway on August 7. These accidents alone resulte

What are the 5 branches of military?

What are the 5 branches of military? Different Military Branches - In simple terms, the U.S. Armed Forces are made up of the five armed service branches: Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and Navy. There are three general categories of military people: active duty (full-time soldiers and sailors), reserve & guard forces (usually work a civilian job, but can be called to full-time military duty), and veterans and retirees (past members of the military). The President of the United States is the Commander in Chief, who is responsible for all final military decisions. The Secretary of the Department of Defense has control over the military and each branch - except the Coast Guard, which is under the Dept. of Homeland Security. With over 2 million civilian and military employees, the Department of defense (DOD) is the world's largest "company." What are the differences between military branches? Each Service has a corresponding Reserve, and mos
