Fibre wraps can withstand a bit more abuse than steel and dont corrode either. Aluminium bottles are better than steel for corrosion, but isnt aluminium more brittle than steel? Cant remember now, use to know when i was at uni.

Thats the reason there making the new Boeing 787 out of carbon fiber. It doesn’t corrode like standard planes and the passengers won’t be as jet lagged.

(I’m not a plane geek. My wife to be is doing airline management at uni)

jet lag?

Isnt that to do with time zones and putting your normal body routine out of sync?

thats what I thought. The new airbus is made from carbon instead of aluminium because its lighter, tougher and doesnt corrode.
