…………Mitsubishi’s shock announcement overnight says compositeswill now be restricted to a maximum of around 15% of the structure,mainly in the tail and other areas where composites have been usedby jet makers for nearly 30 years.It is excluding the material from those areas where complex loadbearing stresses will occur, particularly in high cycle operations suchas regional services where the jet may experience up to 12 landingsor takeoffs and pressurisations a day.
A Mitsubishi spokesperson says, “ Structural changes are easier andrequire shorter lead times with aluminium wings. With an aluminiumwing box, the wing structure can be more easily optimised for thefamily …………………………..
