Fiber reinforced plastic profiles having sections with different fiber types

An aircraft or spacecraft, comprising at least one fiber reinforced plastic profile, the profile comprising:

• a stacked ply assembly including a plurality of stacked plies each comprising fiber material,
• the ply assembly having a profile cross section comprising at least one first section, at least one second section, and at least one splice section located between the at least one first section and the at least one second section,
• the splice section including a first plurality of stacked plies having fibers of a first fiber material and a second plurality of stacked plies having fibers of a second fiber material, and
• respective plies of the first plurality of stacked plies being intertwiningly abutted with respective plies of the second plurality of stacked plies.

A method for forming a fiber reinforced plastic profile, comprising:

• laying up a first plurality of plies having fibers of a first fiber material to a first stacked ply assembly;
• and
• laying up a second plurality of plies having fibers of a second fiber material to a second stacked ply assembly,
• wherein the respective plies of the first plurality of stacked plies are intertwiningly abutted with respective plies of the second plurality of stacked plies, and
• wherein the first stacked ply assembly and the second stacked ply assembly form a respective first section and a respective second section of a profile cross section of a fiber reinforced plastic profile.
