Aircraft interiors

Old magnesium interior framing made of MgZr alloy welded.

In Germany very large cast magnesium wheels were manufactured in large numbers.

Westland Aircraft made helicopter forgings from ZK30.

Magnesium forgings were in widespread use from 1935-1970 for many aircraft components.

Using a variety of Dow developed magnesium alloy, the US military made entire airframes. The wing above was proof of concept.

First post

I hope to use this to post all the historic photos of magnesium products made from 1900 onward. All of these are scans from old publications and promotional materials.
