Default Can't buy them all, choosing between ASW19 vs LS1 vs PIK20

All other things being equal (which they seldom are - condition of finish, equipment, trailer etc. usually vary quite a bit with used gliders) go for the ASW-19. It's fairly roomy, has a great one piece forward opening canopy, really nice handling, adequate air brakes and good performance. Assembly is easy with the two main pin system. All the control couplings are manual but they are quite easy to reach and visually check.
