Book Description
The materials and processes for the B-2707 have been evaluated by tests that reflect the new operational environment (defined in D6A10107-1) and incorporate improvements developed for subsonic airplanes. This document describes the materials and processes for the particular applications and the reasons for selection together with supporting data. Details of much of the development work leading to final selection of materials and processes are reported in the bimonthly progress reports D6-18110 and are not repeated in this document. Particular emphasis is placed on new materials and requirements. Those material applications with long history of satisfactory use on commercial and military airplanes are identified, but are not discussed in detail.
