ennored -- the boattail is visible as a shadow on the ground. Doesn't it clam-shell open just ahead of the taillight? Aluminum truss and skin sides and top?

I'm pretty interested in basalt. deejaaa showed some samples at http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...tml#post437859 but I never saw any result of the testing we talked about there.

The linked discussion was interesting, positioning it relative to E-glass, S-glass and carbon fiber. Sizing vs sizing, etc. I was thinking more along the lines of a fishing-pole-sized frame with a flexible skin in tension.
