Seems to be existing only on paper so far. Calling it a Duo ASG-29 doesn't sound innovative so they stuck with their very German and uncool letter-number combo. Smart move to try and capture some of the 20m class business dominated by the Duo Discus.

Agree with Paul: lovely new glider!

Pictures of the nearly complete fuselage. Note the split canopy like on the -21. "Garages" for bug wipers.
