I am getting ready to replace the panel in my Ventus B. Are there any
standard materials (especially the core) and recommended glass and
core thickness used to layup a new one?

Fixed panels are sometimes part of the cockpit structure or safety
design of the glider; e.g., to break instead of injuring the pilot's
legs. Check with the manufacturer before using a different material, or
if the glider is old enough, they might now recommend a different
material than the original material.
