'27 and '28 lamination schemes show no carbon in a portion of the turtle deck area. Low loads and it is easy to shape carbon layer during lamination.. My ELT antennas are in this area for that reason.

Actually, the ELT antennas are the reason why there is a glass part in the turtle deck. Otherwise you would have to put these antennas somewhere else, and you would need a cable to connect the antenna to the ELT. And that would be real stupid.
