Default RE: what to use for main spars?

Thanks Laird SS, I did come across some very tight grain Hem-Fir at the lumber yard also that had a very straight grain. I just did not know what the elasticity was like in the hem fir.
Is a very stiff wing more desirable then a wing that can flex some without breaking or the other way around.
Thanks
