Default Pegasus or ....?

must have been a really nice ASW19 and a really bad Pegasus! They are

does a 19.


I don't think I ever flew a 19, but I did a fair few hours in a
Pegasus one summer. Lovely thing, I thought - I was told that the
wings are far bendier than 19 ones. Which may mean better energy
transfer or a worse ride, depending on where one flies...
