Description
The MAESTRO is the long awaited comeback of Hannes Papesh in the High B class.
This wing exceeds the very high expectations.
Designer’s Note
The High B class is very important to me. It is my special discipline: over a long period of time, in collaboration with my test pilots,
I have succeeded in developing outstanding wings in this class.
Unfortunately, due to very bad circumstances, I could not build a glider in this class for 6 years (MENTOR 3).
The MAESTRO is our comeback. Many have been waiting for this wing. We took our time to calmly develop a glider that is continuing our tradition.
