Here are my opinions of the ones I've flown
* DG-808B
* Ventus-2c & Ventus-2cx
* ASH 26
and possibly:
* ASW 28-18 and 28 (15 m)
* LS8:
Best handling glider ever. An absolute joy to fly. A little
underruddered in 18m configuration, but not so much that it is
troublesome. Like most unflapped sailplanes, requires more skill to
land short. Drum brake is ineffective and the heel brakes are awkward
until you get used to them.
* Discus 2 (15 M)
* ASW 27B
Another excellent handler. Flaps allow short landings. Excellent glide
ratio at low speeds. If the LS-8 rates 98 for handling, the 27
deserves a 95.
Your thoughts and feedback will be appreciated.
Thank you.
