Is it organic?

If it's made of carbon fibre, yes, completely. If of glassfibre construction then partly mineral, the rest organic.

Thanks for the explanation

Fugue,

I had to look that one up.
i hope the musical variant and not the phyciatric one?

Meanwhile I keep to the 24 hour voluntary continence as proposed by Asturias.

Bolkhovitinov it is - actually the XI-L but as with all Russian aircraft actual nomenclature is not always clear
