Not *all*... my Airborne has a chromoly fork, actually a Co-Motion "Americano" fork. When I first saw it, I was afraid the bike would ride like a truck; it's a fairly beefy fork. It was a pleasant surprise to find that it's quite compliant and comfortable. I notice that more current Americano models have straight fork legs; I prefer the esthetics of the curved forks.
