Not a surprise that an Arcus is leading the 20m world gliding champs in Finland. I think all except four of the gliders in the 20m class are Arcus's (one of the non-Arcus's is the prototype ASG 32, which is also doing quite well, the others being Duo and DG 1000). Most impressive is that the Arcus T flown by Steve and Howard Jones has won all of the first three days! Go the Jones brothers. (Steve is the owner of Southern Sailplanes, the UK agent for S-H).
If you have an Arcus do join the Arcus Google group and share your experience of this great glider.
Mark Burton, flying an Arcus M at London Gliding Club, UK.
By the end of the competition, Steve and Howard Jones had won six of the seven competition days, coming second by a very small margin on the last day - what a stunning result.
I have to admit that for the prototype ASG 32 to come third was also pretty impressive.
As I asked before, if you fly an Arcus do join the Arcus Google Group and share your experience. Thanks
