Default Cirrus vs ASW

I see that you are posting from UK! Do you remember
that Joan of Arc was living 6 hundred years and Napoleon
2 hundred years ago? You can spare us this bull****.

has nice, light, responsive handling, climbs well in
small thermals


So does the Pegase.

and has a big and comfortable cockpit.


This is the only thing true in your rant.

Other than that, it is a brilliant and relatively cheap
soaring club class glider and I don't think there is
anything to beat it for the money.


Other than that it has killed a fair number of pilots.
