I might be wrong, but isn't this a Venuts B 16.6?
If not, what is the difference between a Ventus B 16.6 & Ventus C? Nick. "KO" wrote in message ups.com...

Nick:
No, it IS a Ventus C with 16.6 Tips. On the C mode you could get 17.7 or 16.6 mts wingtip extensions... mine has the 16.6, ther is a SH kit to extend those to 17.7 a. There are quite some differences between the "B" and the "C"... wing roots, airfoils, spoilers and no trailing edge brakes, dihedral... to name a few... Regards Enrique |

Minor point, Schempp-Hirth refers to these as 17.6m tips, not 17.7m
tips. Bob On 1 Nov 2005 12:25:55 -0800, "KO" wrote: Nick: No, it IS a Ventus C with 16.6 Tips.
