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..

Look for a Pik20D these are now fully aerobatic (as of 1999) and very
soarable At 11:28 18 February 2013, Terry Pitts wrote: 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.. Terry |

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). Roel A Pilatus B4AF owner btw. |

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. http://www.aigaviation.com/aviations...SalvageId=1531 Sorry. A little gallows humor. Steve |

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.
