Question I live in Canada and finding planes here is really tough . The market is thin and finding good clean ndh planes without importing is really quite interesting. I have always stayed away from any aircraft that had damage of any sort. My thinking is that on resale damage of any sort makes resale very difficult. I also question the repair and the safety of a fixed engine. Not to mention, it seems that one never really knows the full extent of the problems once damaged I would also suggest that not all repairs are created equal .. Further, from what ive seen prop stikes and gear ups create enormous devaluation of the aircraft I have lots of concerns but my question is to the community is .... Would you buy a plane that had a prop strike...has a rebuilt engine ( MOH ) . In this case plane m20m , 10- smoh ( 1500 tt). Evidently no other damage. Assume reputable shop did the rebuild? Is this crazy or would you pass..?.what are the tips/tricks you would ask.look for.... Hopefully this is not too open ended of a question Pete
