Anyone ever thought of building the wing complete in carbon. Seems the ribs could be made very quickly as molded parts and the Spars would as well. Would save about 175 pounds per side

Sounds great, you first! Seriously though, Bob is really comfortable with carbon and other composites and I would bet it would make his day to spend 20 minutes talking with you about this. Call him and report back what he has to say. He might have a good reason not to, or he might not have a good reason. It may take a few tries to catch him at (540) 473-3661

Clint Busenitz is building Badlands Traveler wings with carbon fiber ribs. It looks like they are using aluminum spars. There are some visuals at around 7:20 in this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahuARlQuzps
