I spent many enjoyable years flying an ASW 19b against standard class
gliders one or two generations newer. Not expecting to win did not
stop me showing up at contests. The days I did well were memorable
and the days I did poorly I had a good excuse.

I think I'd vote against this but if it becomes a general rule I'll
consider trading my 28 for a good ASW 19b - with sustantial cash
adjustment of course.
