Abstract: The invention concerns a sheet 0.5 to 8 mm thick made from aluminium alloy. The sheet can be obtained by a method comprising casting, homogenising, hot rolling and optionally cold rolling, solution heat treatment, quenching and tempering, the composition and the tempering being combined in such a way that the elasticity limit in the longitudinal direction Rp0.2(L) is between 395 and 435 MPa. A sheet according to the invention is particularly advantageous for producing aircraft fuselage panels.
