The ASK-21's I have flown were close enough to the Grob to make any

That surprises me. The control feel or harmony of the K-21 is, in my
opinion, far superior to the G103 (either the twin pig or the Acro)
and the retract gear version is a killer in the back seat. About the
only thing to dislike about the K-21 is the rear canopy.

I agree. My club has one of each, and I much prefer to fly the ASK-21
even though I'm a large guy and the Grob has a significantly more
comfortable cockpit for my size. It flies well enough, and transitioning
from the ASK-21 to the Grob during my training was pretty
straightforward, but it just gets to be tiring to fly in thermals or
bumpy conditions.
