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.

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...

Enrique

Minor point, Schempp-Hirth refers to these as 17.6m tips, not 17.7m
tips.
