Think Dwayne (?) Cole flew a clipped wing T-craft in air shows for
years and walked away in one piece and died in his bed with his boots
on ).

You might check and see what he got approved as mods to this bird and
if they would apply to one you bought (not clipped wing for acro)?

Maybe someone can point you where to go to check that bird out and how
it was modified.

You mentioned noise. Any A/C of that era will be noisy and you will
need some type of ear protection (or loose your hearing like I have
from aircraft noise)
..
Fly safe and be lucky.

Check out the Taylorcraft.

A 100hp F-19 gets off the ground in about 350' and will climb at 1000' per
minute on a cool day. I've seen mine climb around 700 fpm at 70 degrees
with two of us on board. There are lots of them on floats. The 65 and 85
hp models perform very well too.

The factory is spinning up to make new birds:
www.taylorcraft.com.

They will be available with engines from the O-235 to O-360.
