Abstract

The individual room units presently used in aircraft, e.g. crew rest rooms, are usually fixed installations so that quick on-demand changeover of passenger seats to such a room unit may only be feasible with an extended change-over period in the repair hangar. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a modular wall construction system for aircraft cabins is provided, which comprises individually prefabricated wall construction panels (701, 702, 703) adapted for a quick installation with connecting elements without additional tools. This may result in the formation of at least one room of a room unit (1) of individual size and geometry.
