"Extinction for a Reason" Discussion

Regarding the board, I must first say that I have tremendous respect for you all. Cees always with the uncovering of tantalizing bits of rare types, the e travels of Tony and the many others who make this board what it is...A rebuilder once said regarding the Buffalo project being shopped around years ago..."Sometimes a plane is extinct for a reason, like it wasn't good enough to start with."

To you all I ask; Is an Aircraft type Extinct for a Good Reason?

This ignores the reality that if a mint Ablemarle is found in a barn in Ireland, it should be preserved regardless...
