Well there is not, this is simply not true.


Read The Fine Manual... From the ASW-27 flight manual:

"Since the whole airframe ex cept for the fin and a small area above the baggage compartment contains carbon fibre which screens electromagnetic radiation, the ELT's antenna must be fitted in the top of the baggage compartment and extend into the canopy area."

On a sunny day, have a friend place their hand on the outside of the fuselage and look inside. If you can see the hand's shadow, it's not carbon.
