Aircraft cabin window assembly method

摘要

A method for assembling a cabin window to a bay in a side wall of an aircraft fuselage, where the cabin window including an outer transparent element and at least one inner transparent element, includes making a non-through hole in a portion of the side wall. The outer transparent element includes a first part having a diameter greater than that of the bay and which is shaped to co-operate with the portion of the side wall to block the outer transparent element in the bay both laterally and longitudinally. A second part of the outer transparent element has a groove that projects into the fuselage. The outer transparent element and the at least one inner transparent element are welded to the fuselage using a strap which presses a seal against at least the fuselage and the inner wall of the groove.
