International competition requires the aircraft manufacturer to be constantly on the look out for recent construction materials having the best performance, mass, and cost. Carbon-resin composites are a good comprise for aircraft structures. Currently introduced in moveable surface of civil aviation aircraft, the carbon-resin composite should eventually be adopted for large size primary structures. The process of fiber production is being mastered. To meet the expectations of the aeronautics industry, new generations of carbon fibers were developed (T.400, X.550, type 3, etc.). The intrinsic characteristics of these fibers are discussed as well as the comparative performance of layered structures prepared from T.300 and T.400. Composites used on the Caravel, the Concorde, the Airbus, the Mirage 2000, the Falcon 10, and the ATR 42 aircraft are discussed. Improvements required in properties and fabrication processes are identified.
