Use of ARALL for fatigue dominated structural parts, like the lower wing and the pressure cabin of an aircraft, was assessed. To investigate the potential of the material, preliminary design studies were carried out on these components. The studies result in a weight reduction of more than 25 percent for the lower wing and the pressure cabin.
