Why are aircraft windows round?



The planes do not have square windows because they are weak in the corners so the pressure is concentrated there. Constant pressure and compression of these windows can eventually cause corners, cracks and fractures, and round windows have the same amount of stress throughout the window. If you are also wondering about those small holes, one of the three panels is placed to help release and release pressure.
