Which equals about the same percentage difference in handicaps between

the
A and B. It does not address the noticeably better glide of the A though.



The A definitely goes better than the B. It has a wider range of wing

Now that the UK CC has set the V3 handicap the same as the V2 (and 27!),
does anyone in the USA want to buy a V2a?
