What exactly would be crappy with the Idaflieg
measurements?

I have no other explanation to 304 vs. Mosquito handicaps. Do
you?

The Idaflieg measurements involve a massive effort (calibrated

times, lots

of customized measurement electronics and software)and are the
most
accurat=
e measurements of glider polars you will ever get.

What you then do with the results is another story (which neither
bothers

or interests me).

Trouble is sailplanes rarely compete in the smooth morning air!
