Aircraft design is one of the most important elements of building a plane. Plenty of training and sound science is needed in order to make a successful plane. There is not too much room for creativity in aircraft. Design elements of aircraft always include the airframe, or the basic structure of the plane. They also include the engine and mechanical equipment. The body is an important part of the design as well. Lastly, the interior design is included. For larger aircraft this can be quite involved with kitchens, bars, and specialty seats. Safety design is part of every step of the design process.

Aerospace manufacturing is any craft that is going to be taking to the skies. Sometimes this also includes design and manufacturing of spacecraft. Aerospace is a word that means a craft that will move through air space rather than ground space. It is more difficult to design and manufacture because there are more dimensions to consider than there are on the ground. A car can only move forward and backward, and can change directions in its forward and backward movement. A plane or aircraft adds to that up and down movement as well as the ability to spin.

 

Aircraft engineers require specialized training and practice to master their work. They design aircraft based on more movement than can be accomplished on the ground. They usually work in groups of engineers to ensure that nothing can go wrong with the design. Flaws in a design can easily be fatal and that is simply not an option. The engineer's designs are tested thoroughly so this can be avoided. Some designs go back to the drawing board for revisions, while others are solid and traditional and can go on the next stage of development.
