There is no bad balsa. Only bad owners (or prior owners) I think it is safe to say that pretty much all water saturation of balsa is caused by poor bedding of fittings

I imagine C&C did considerable testing to determine the strength of their construction to evaluate laminate schedules and optimum core thickness. Do you remember seeing any letters in your binders explaining the testing done, data collected, etc?
