Looks like DG have succumbed to market forces by annoucing they
will produce a "Turbo" version of the 808. See
http://www.dg-flugzeugbau.de/dg-808st-e.html Also has the 600kg all
up weight. Nice.

the standard engines get a little anemic out here in the western high
desert.. (US)

Uhhh ... that would appear to be a non sequitur. A "turbo" is a power
improvement over a standard glider ... it's a big step down in power
(and price) from a standard engine.
