Notes:

I'm selling my UP Makalu 4. A suitable wing for more skilled pilots fresh from the course (low EN-B). Still good, but more lively than a schoolboy. It will be more fun when gliding and you can already tell the difference in performance on the first flights. The wing is older and has already experienced its share. On the other hand, it flies well and could fly well for another average season, two more. An ideal choice for a pilot who wants a better wing, but has ambitions to go further and will still want to switch to a more powerful era in a year or two. That is also my reason for selling. I got from gliding to the first nicer flights on the wing. But it wasn't my first wing, so it avoided wear and tear when pulling on starts or during groundhandling. The technical inspection expires in May 2027, but there is no problem with doing so before the sale. In case of worse results, I have no problem reducing the price. I would reduce it if the porosity result is lower than 80.
