Guy in the glider club I belonged to mid-80s purchased a sailplane, the Phoebus by Bölkow.
Balsa structure holding up a fiberglass skin.
This aircraft type was the join between wood-and-fabric gliders of the 30s through 60s, and the swoopy clean fiberglass (and now carbon) shapes of today.

It was lovely in the same sense as a D-type Jaguar racer - form utterly following function, within the design language of the era.

Balsa is awesome for shaping and building, but its water absorption causes issues in older boats.
Easy to work with though
