Default Fiberglass vs. Fabric

P.S. The CAP-10C, the newest version of the Emeraude, now has a carbon
fiber spar.

Does it use that "pulltruded" carbon rod stuff for caps? That stuff is
incredibly strong, far superior to carbon roving in compression and
tension.


I don't know. The website of Mudry Aviation has disappeared and I think the
company has been sold. I haven't had occasion to look it up.
