Why windows are round in airplane ?
why airplane window are round rather than square ?
At the time of 1950s ,the first commercial jetliner,the de Havilland comet started. but some time later 3 comet plane was crashed simultaneously ,investigation report says that it is due to fuselages tore apart during flight .
In simple word due to change in air pressure between ground and sky, the fuselage structure also change because fuselage is also pressurized . Airlines fly aircraft at higher altitude to save fuel.This
cause stress on fuselage ,in this square window cause more obstruction in stress compare to round window .
If window is square there is more chance to wreck plane structure so round shape is batter choice instead of square .
This figure help to batter understand that square shape creating more obstruction in stress than round shape.
