Hi David, is this B4 still for sale? if it is I may be interested in purchasing her. Flew a B4 back at PGC and liked it very much.

This glider is no longer on Wings and Wheels so I'm guessing it has been sold. Too bad, it looked like a good deal. If I had been back from Germany I might have pursued it. Aerobatic and soar able..

It was sold last summer, shipped in December and should fly at its new home in Santiago, Chile any day now. A nice glider, indeed!

Look for a Pik20D these are now fully aerobatic (as of 1999) and very
soarable

On gliders like the PIK20 I would like to note that they are perhaps not so ideal for a beginning aerobatic pilot. Look up the DG-303 acro manual for similar warnings.

Points which I find less-than-ideal:
- The reclined position makes one less G-aware.
- The efficient design makes the glider pick up speed rapidly. This may give you bigger vertical uplines, but also makes the room for error in downlines smaller.
- Flexing wings are not ideal for judging angles. During stall-turns for example, I find it difficult to judge a line correctly. When I relax backpressure, the wing changes shape.

I would rather recommend a design like the SZD-59 (although I have never flown it).

There is another B4 for sale. Same general part of the US. Has recently been "re-finished". I think it is being sold with the formerly complete trailer. You might even know the previous owner.

Sorry. A little gallows humor.

By the way, you must have seen the SZD-56 on the same site. Any
thoughts on it? It sure seems like there is a lot of damage in a lot
of different areas on that ship.

Thanks, Bob K.

Have no opinion on it. Ask Monty or Heinz. I gather they did an inspection, based on the salvage listing. Then, there is the poor ASH-25Mi on the list. Ask Rex about it, if you are interested.
