Aircraft structures wing panel

Access Doors/Panels The Airbus aircraft contain, as indeed do most civil and military aircraft, numerous access doors or panels in the wing and body structures. 

Automotive applications include body panels, belts, tires, hoses, composite drive shafts. One of the authors knows local race car drivers in Denver, who will thermoform plastic door panels for their race cars with an ordinary shop vacuum. Recently, there has been a carbon fiber composite automobile frame proposed by Colorado Company. Aerospace applications are airplane wings, filament-wound rocket bodies. There are also homebuilt experimental aircraft which are rolled into the sun to cure the epoxy matrix. One of the largest composite structures in space is the composite arm made by Canada for the Space Station.
