Ok, i looked up stainless steel of wikipedia, and I discovered something frightining...
IT IS FOR AIRPLANE PARTS!!!
So my question is: should we use stainless steel for airplanes?

Only Hocotatians (Hmmm... Doesn't look quite right...) could use it then for ships and crap. But enemies like the Titan Dweevil with fire moves could potentially melt it into shape. Neh' Maybe not...

I'm gonna have to say no on this one. The reason is that airplanes are rather special, being able to cross any terrain besides going beneath the water/ground level. So, most folks will be using Aluminum for theirs, which isn't the strongest substance. That makes aircraft somewhat weak defensively, which is a good counter to their terrain-crossing abilities. Titanium is meant to sort of be a universal substance for building anything strongly besides spaceships, and is generally the only exception. You could make aircraft out of Hocotate Freight Rocket Metal, although it's rare...that's sort of the midtone, although it's hard to get.
Edit: Oh, and the building materials aren't meant to be 100% realistic. If they were, Stainless Steel would have a higher build strength than Titanium.
