Best cross country ship class
I'm in the market for a standard class or 15 meter flapped ship. This is my first ship, and I doubt I want to deal with 18 m of wings.
An example would be a Discus 2 vs ASW 27. Currently most of my flight goals are simple: get as high up, and far out as possible. Speed is nice, but I'm doubtful I'll be comfortable in a competition for many seasons. All other things being equal, which is the better type (flapped or non-flapped) for staying up a long time and, eventually, cross country flights? Thanks!
