Do a Google groups search in this group and the rec.aviation.owning
group; there was an identical question with lots of answers just a
couple of weeks ago.
Big thing with Champs is the recent wooden spar AD. Can make an
airplane nearly worthless if there are cracks in those spars, and
those cracks are really hard to see. Doing the inspection PROPERLY is
neither easy nor cheap.

Do A Google search for Aeronca. There is an excellent support group with a
mailing list.

I'm planning to buy a 1946 7AC Champ with 2 partners. All
of us individually own one or more other aircraft. Anyone
have any recommendations for:

1) Things to inspect look closely at. AD's I need to be
aware of, etc.

2) A good partnership agreement I can look at

3) What insurance will cost.

4) What are they selling for?

Thanks.
