Weight reduction has been a critical goal since the earliest days of crewed flight. Following initial applications of wood, fabric, and wire for structural components, the aircraft industry made a major transition to aluminium and all-metal aircraft. As a result of this approach to structural design, modern civil aircraft are designed with greatly reduced aircraft operating empty weight to achieve a significant payload to weight fraction that contributes directly to aircraft flight efficiency. In the transition to aluminium components, the industry accepted the significant costs that were required to retool and modify ist manufacturing processes. In this paper the authors deal about the weight reduction techniques and composite process methods of the aviation industries.
