Both planes are an all carbon fiber design
Really?
There are so many errors in that last post by USFlyer – me thinks it’s best just to ignore it
Are there any all carbon fibre planes in mainstream GA?
You would get an awfully rough ride.
Not that I know of.
Cirrus only started using carbon for the wing spar in @ 2007 with the G3 but all of the Lancair/Columbia/Ttx have carbon fibre wing spars from the first production aircraft. It is massively over-built with dual spars .There are some microlights like the “Millenium” that are completely carbon fibre, and also some experimentals like the “Papa51 ThunderMustang”, 2/3 copy of the P-51 Mustang, which is also 100 percent carbon fibre. Some other kitplanes aswell.
The Cirrus was 100 % glass fibre to the G2 model. The G3 introduced a carbon fibre main spar of identical strength – but 87 lbs lighter.
