To be fair it's fairly thick metal. To be real it's rivets.

I'm actually a bit surprised they went with rivets and didn't just toss a handful of self-tappers in there.

Hoo boy if you want mechanical art then let me introduce you to my favorite artist. Unfortunately, these are the highest-resolution versions of any of these photos I have found, though I haven't tried running them through waifu2x yet so maybe we'll get something better

Seat Safety Switch posted:It's probably doped with some anti-reflective bullshit and made through some tiny specialist that's friends/former coworkers with the chief of engineering. HUD combiners are (frequently) made with special dichroic coatings that only reflect the color of the display elements, so that they're both as bright and as transparent as possible. Also, depending on the design, it might be just a flat piece of coated glass, or it might be a complex aspherically-ground piece that requires extensive CNC grinding and polishing operations to produce. And, of course, the market for HUDs for regional jets is necessarily quite tiny. Given that it's specific to the aircraft model, you might make, what, a few hundred pieces total, ever?
