Anyone ever use carbon fiber panels for the floorboards as opposed to wood?

The Piet doesn't have floorboards, as such. Your feet are on the bottom 1/4" plywood. Which is a structural member of the fuselage truss. If you plan on using carbon fiber panels, you need to do some load calculations.

Oh yes, that makes sense...and sounds complicated...
