Seems to be my week for obviously dumb questions, but I'll venture forth, nonetheless...

If the cockpit has no carbon, is it possible to mount the PF antenna behind the pilot's head?

My Kestrel 19 has an utility shelf behind my head, with clear canopy above that. Seems to me that there's a clear view of the sky and only fibreglass behind it, so should get good reception all around.

Obscuring the antenna, especially its forward view with a fat head is probably not a good idea. Get those antennas up front on top of the glareshield....
