A blanket (110) for insulating an aircraft structure (190) comprises an insulating portion (112), comprising a first edge (111) and a second edge (113), perpendicular to the first edge (111). The blanket (110) also comprises a tab portion (114), extending from the insulating portion (112), and a formable coupler (116), attached to the insulating portion (112). The tab portion (114) is thinner than the insulating portion (112). The insulating portion (112) fully overlaps the formable coupler (116). The formable coupler (116) is parallel to the second edge (113) of the insulating portion (112) and is perpendicular to the first edge (111) of the insulating portion (112).

The present invention achieves technical advantages as a vehicle cabin, comprising a floor system formed of removable and reconfigurable floor segments extending from a vehicle frame, and a ceiling system formed of removable and reconfigurable ceiling segments disposed in the ceiling of the vehicle cabin. Floor segments that can be positioned to form a floor channel, therebetween. A fixture interface adapted to releasably secure a fixture to the floor system. The fixture can be slidably repositioned within the vehicle along the floor channel. One of the ceiling segments includes one or more of a lighting module, a ventilation outlet, a ventilation inlet, a display screen, or a touch control panel. The ceiling segments can be hexagonal.

A sound attenuation panel that includes an incident wall and a frame unit connected to the incident wall. The incident wall defines an aperture therethrough. The frame unit includes multiple spoke members spaced apart from one another and radially extending from one or more central hub openings of the frame unit. The one or more central hub openings align with the aperture of the incident wall. The frame unit defines channels between adjacent pairs of the spoke members. The channels fluidly connect to the one or more central hub openings. The frame unit is configured to receive sound waves into the central hub opening through the aperture of the incident wall to dissipate the sound waves through the channels between the spoke members.

A galley for an aircraft includes a frame having metal structural members having interior surfaces and panels coupled to and supported by the frame. Each panel has a core and a facesheet having an inner surface. The frame and the panels define a cart compartment configured to receive a galley cart. The interior surfaces of the metal structural members are interior of the inner surface of the corresponding facesheet. The galley includes a cooling system having a supply duct and a return duct along one or more of the panels in flow communication with the cart compartment configured to supply cooled airflow from a heat exchanger. The galley includes insulating panels located in the cart compartment covering the interior surfaces of the corresponding metal structural members.

A concentric, double hull, damage tolerant airframe vehicle double clad with a lightweight, impact resistant ceramic matrix composite for heat shielding and flame resistance, and fitted with insulation, to provide thermal protection from 35° C. to 1,650° C. of the internal fuselage areas for an extended period of time within an extreme heat environment, that will serve as a semi or fully autonomous vehicle, manned or unmanned, preferably an unmanned aerial vehicle designed as the delivery means to suppress or extinguish flames by repeatedly discharging pressure waves against flames without having to exit the fire environment.

An insulation pack for thermally and acoustically insulating an aircraft has a mat formed from an insulation material, and a casing film which completely encases the mat. The casing film has drying openings, each closable a cover that is connected to the casing film. Each cover has a coating substance, the planar extent of which varying as a function of the relative air humidity of the air in the interior of the insulation pack such that each cover moves relative to the casing film, as a function of air humidity. The associated covers are adapted for assuming an orientation which, below a predetermined relative air humidity, closes the associated drying opening and which, at higher relative air humidity values, at least partially opens the associated drying opening.
