Default Jantar Standard 2 & 3 handling

I’d appreciate input on the slow speed handling of the Jantar Standard 2
& 3 models.

Of the Jantar Standard 1 model, Richard Johnson indicated in Soaring, July,
1979, that “In a turn, the Standard 1 wing in particular would drop its
inboard wing quite suddenly if a bit too much pro-turn rudder was applied
at stall, and a full spin could ensnare an unwary pilot quickly. This is a
less-than-good characteristic, but acceptable for properly experienced
pilots.” Richard goes on to say that he didn’t closely check the
Standard 2 model also tested because it was no longer available but
speculates that the Standard 2 stall characteristics might be improved
because of the later model’s different wing configuration (forward sweep
and higher mounting), albeit with the same airfoil.

Derek Piggott in Gliding Safety, 1991, says in making overall comments on
the Jantar Standard models, that “The general handling is
straightforward, the stall is similar to most glass two-seaters…”

All thoughts and experience will be valued,
Bryan
