“Except it is forbidden to use these chemicals on aircraft. They are not approved.
...Strong chemicals cause copper corrosion and circuit failure. ANY product intended for use on an aircraft must be approved by both the manufacturer of the aircraft and the faa.”

This is an FAA test.
And Hydrogen Peroxide is already sold as an approved aircraft cleansing chemical.

Not approved for contact with aircraft structural components as in the interior of the aircraft. It will corrode steel and aluminum, and initiate galvanic reaction between dissimilar metals as found in the floor and support structure of the aircraft. iT is impossible to thoroughly clean the seats without total overhaul of the seats. Carpets must be removed from aircraft to thoroughly clean them. The seat tracks are impossible to scrub clean of puke, blood, spit, or any spilled liquids. If you put oxygenated cleaners on them, you degrade their structure. The overhead compartments and wall panels must be removed from the aircraft to thoroughly clean them as well .A wipe down and vacuum of the interior is not a cleaning, but just a spruce up.

You can use anything you want to clean an airplane, but you void the airworthiness certification once you use non approved materials. The airplane then becomes a nice and very expensive lawn ornament.
