Carbon fiber is 5 times lighter and 5 times more expensive. It is also stronger and more brittle. It also blocks radio waves. Used in the right places for the right reasons, it is well worth it. We used it for our seats because that weight is aft CG and we knew that anything aft would be a problem. But then we had to install the radio antenna on top of the plane instead of behind the seat which was the intended place for it. See you in Mt.
