Default Diana-2 - master-piece or flop?



- Strangely enough Mr.Johnosn did not publish these
'revelations'.


I am not taking any sides in the Dianna 2 debate, as
it seems like a hot ship, with a not too shabby track
record to back that up and I do not have rounded enough
info to pass judgment on it. I do want to point out
however, that this thread is about s/n 3 or higher;
Johnson tested s/n 2, the personal Dianna 2 of the
US dealer. I am curious to hear more, both good or
bad (hopefully good though). One can never be too cautious
about believing hype on any product, especially sailplanes,
but I do want to point out that the Poles have a very
good track record when it comes to their ship's performances
and their claims about them. In general they tend to
be very objective, scientific, and accurately stated,
as confirmed by many other Johnson (and other's) tests,
including s/n 2 Dianna II. But lets not stifle further
discussion on the subject.
