I have an engineers report here which tells me a cf tail spring about 6mm
in thickness is 33 per cent less stiff than a steel spring, but if 12mm thick
it is 5 times the stifness of a metal spring and about half the weight, so I
was thinking that about 8 mm in thickness will do the job, any one have any
experience in using cf for tail wheel springs?
