Built of
aluminium
The airframe is aluminium: sheet metal over a riveted frame, the way most aircraft have been built since the 1940s. Early 120s and 140s have fabric-covered wings; the 140A is all-metal. This is how the Cessna 140 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.
