I flew a Discus once and my back hurt for days. I swapped my LS-6 once
with a friend for his '20 and neither one of us was very happy. He
thought the '6 was twitchy and I thought the '20 was heavy. Diff'rent
strokes...

I have heard for John Neel that a 20 with winglets is very close in performance to the next generation aircraft. This sure is a pretty 20. I love the wood panel.
Well, I flew an ASW20 with winglets for about 400h, and it's still lightyears from the next generation aircraft (which would be an ASW27).

I disagree I don't always fly my best, but when I do I can keep up with ventus 2bx's and 27s for miles and miles. ask Erik Nelson!

i've flown a 27 and i don't prefer it over a 20. a 20 with winglets feels just as nice as to me.

i do prefer a ventus 2bx though, in terms of handling. it handles extremely nicely.
but for cockpit comfort the 20 is better in my opinion. i flew a discus for a long time, and then started flying a 20. got back in the discus once and was sore after about 2 hours.
