You were claiming no glider fuselages have this, having used GPS antennas mounted under the turtleneck in several otherwise carbon fiber glider fuselages I know you are wrong about that.

Here is a game for the upcoming SSA convention... folks there can ask or look to check if the turtledecks in all the gliders on display are RF transparent or not.

Oh the anticipation for the advancement of human (well r.a.s.) knowledge is killing me.... :-)

'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.
