Do you have an expert in this particular type who knows where to look for problems? Is it possible to find those problems with non-destructive inspection? Have you thought about a nicely restored 1-26? Old school XC. Lots of relatively safe low speed landout practice. Easy to resell. Parts and expertise readily available. A strong community of owners. And great fun.
