Default Need opinion on backup plane using 91 Surpass

I am stationed overseas in the Air Force and will be returning to the states in December. I have built an Ohio RC Cap 232 with a 1.60FX and it flys great! I am practicing the IMAC patterns so I can jump into the season after I get back. The Cap 232 is my primary plane. I have read a lot about the importance of having a backup plane. The reasons are obvious to me. I really can't afford to do another Ohio Cap (can't find the kits anymore anyway!), but I do have an extra 91 Surpass II sitting here and a handful of Futaba coreless servos. What would be a good ARF to put these into in order to make a formidable backup plane? It would have to be a 60 size I reckon. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Has anyone seen a 60 sized ARF that has done well in competition?

Thanks!

Dave
