Abstract: A lightning and corrosion protection arrangement for a joint between an outer metallic part (11) and an aircraft structural component (13) completely or partially made of CFRP by means of a row of metallic rivets (15), that comprise inner and outer metallic layers (21, 25) and an intermediate dielectric layer (23), the inner metallic layer (21) in contact with said structural component (13) being thinner and bigger than the outer metallic layer (21) in contact with the metallic part (11), the intermediate dielectric layer (23) extending in an area bigger than the area of the foot (12) of the metallic part (11) by a predetermined minimum linear distance D1 between its edges, the outer metallic layer (25) extending in an area bigger than the area of the intermediate dielectric layer (23) by a predetermined minimum linear distance D2 between its edges.

Abstract: An aircraft lifting surface structured as a torsion box comprising upper and lower skins (19, 21) stiffened by span wise stringers (25, 25?, 25?), said aircraft lifting surface comprising one or more fuel tanks (31, 33, 35, 37) arranged inside of said torsion box and separated by bulkheads (41), the stringers (25, 25?, 25?) having extended feet in the intersection areas with said bulkheads (41), also comprising filler panels (45) of said skins (19, 21) covering the holes that remain between said skins (19, 21) and said bulkheads (41) outside said intersection areas, whose configuration is adapted for covering the space between the extended feet (26, 26?) of stringers (25, 25?), leaving a gap with them of a predetermined width (W1), thereby providing a self-fastening capability over each skin plane that facilitates the attachment of said filler panels (45) to said skins (19, 21).
