I've been on both sides of this equation: ASW20 flying alongside ASW27. In the midrange there was no difference!


27 is overrated, that tiny wing needs 18m span to work as intended as 29 has shown. I've flown 20 against 27 and sure it runs a little better at very high speeds but you can basically fly all day long side by side and arrive home 5 minutes later. When you put glider price into that equation...
