Selected
fuselage composite barrel
"The 787 fuselage was designed to be assembled in one-piece composite barrel sections. Each barrel would be manufactured in one piece and joined end to end during final assembly. The composite barrel approach was a departure from the multiple aluminum sheets and fasteners used on existing aircraft, and eliminated the need for some 50,000 fasteners used in conventional airplane assembly."

Anscheinend geht es um eine Bildunterschrift, die eventuell Bezug auf irgendwelche Textteile nimmt. Also kannst nur du wissen, was da gerade gefragt ist ;-)
