Hello i have a few questions that no one seems to have time to answer, it would be really helpful if i could get a few answer, just to get a better understanding of carbon fibre.
thank you!!!!!

1. When flying, are you able to physically feel the difference between a carbon fibre reinforced plane and a non-composite plane?

2. Why use carbon fibre for aerospace engineering?

3. What problems can a carbon fibre reinforced aeroplane face?

4. Do you believe that composites will change the future of aerospace engineering?

5. What companies do you associate with composite aeroplanes?

1. The batteries react with a carbon fibre aircraft, this causes extra sweating and makes for a less comfortable ride.

2. There has been a huge carbon fibre discovery near Oklahoma, the new mine will bring the cost way below that of Aluminium.

3. Excessive dampness (see 1), extra dehumidifiers are required compared to Aluminium.

4. If there is enough glue, Belgium will probably lead here.

5. Lego.
