What magic do the JS3 and Ventus 3 have that the ASG-29 Does not?
Well, for that price...no engine and prolly needing wing waviness sanded smooth. But reasonable for a good sports class plane.

The (wise) play on words only works if you say "the nut that *holds* the stick".

After the definitive spanking these two new models gave to the previously dominant ASG-29, there has to be a superiority. So, what is it? (And yes, the pilot matters...but look at the results in 18m Worlds competition) Spanking came from the fact that every top pilot chose to fly V3 or JS3. It is kind of reassuring to see that in this age of "higher-wingloading-is-better" competitions are still won by glider that are designed to climb well. |

From the WGC competition results, I would rather draw the conclusion that the good pilots chose to fly JS3 or Ventus 3 rather than the ASG29. I would not conclude that one model has a clear advantage over the other. In previous competitions, pilots of Ventus 3 and ASG29 achieved comparable results. JS3 pilots did not always do so well in this years competition season over here in Germany.
You need to measure the performance of the gliders in similar conditions in order to compare them. |

Just to point out an ASG-29-15 won the 15 meter WGC with a Dianna 2 coming in second place. |

No, Kawa won the 15M championship. He just happened to have been in a 29. He would won in the Diana also, as he has many times before.

The JS3 in 18m configuration smashed the 1250km FAI triangle record earlier this year. Many days in the latest round of the World's had the 18m (V3 and JS3) achieving speeds higher than the Open Class (EB29 and JS1C-21m) over similar task distances.

Kawa would not have won in a "obsolete windjammer" and Kawa was NOT flying the Dianna 2 which DID beat all the other gliders, except for Kawa's ASG-29. |
