Hi ladies and gents,
Here is a video made by Sebastian Kawa on ECG 2013 at Ostrów in
Poland.
This video presents final glide of his Discus 2a wing to wing with
Arcus flying at 200km/h. As you can see at this speed performance
of 20m span glider is no better than 15m Discus 2a.

"A why they're buying such expensive gliders...".

At 200 km/h, it's all going to come down to who has the highest wing loading....
