And too much plastic, way too much plastic.(composite)

I already know all the advantages of composites from racing experience. I just do not like its failure scenarios when it does go kabooey.

I wonder if they are installing some “reinforcements” with concerns about the Airbus unkown crash causes in the Atlantic?

Many airplane designes use it and it works perfectly. The B-2, F-117, Diamond aircraft, and many others all use it without any failures.
