There is a revolution underway in commercial aircraft manufacturing today and it can be summed up with composites. There
are many good reasons for aircraft manufacturers to use composites and for airlines to want composites to be used in their fleets. Many advanced composite materials achieve relatively greater strength characteristics compared with traditional metallic materials, reducing aircraft weight and thus reducing fuel cost per passenger carried. Composites are more resistant than metal to fatigue from repeated take off/landing cycles, resulting in fewer costly inspections over the aircraft’s lifespan and more time spent in the air making money. In today's scenario magnesium alloy is widely used as matrix material for composite in aerospace application.

Md Washim Akram Thanks for your valuable answer. However my question is related to new magnesium alloy which is used now days for MMC. The AZ91, AZ31 magnesium alloys are used by too many authors for MMC.
