I don't hear people saying that a Discus (1 or 2) LS8 or any of the Scheilcher gliders are anything but straightforward providing the pilot has received the proper training. Don get your basic facts right matey - Diana is a FLAPPED 15m glider!! .... and? In my club the required total time to fly our ASW-20 was 100 hours. Noone ever had a problem (and for all of them it was the first flapped glider). In my opinion the 20 is a lot harder to fly than the current 15m class gliders (DG-800, ASW-27 and Ventus 2). 200 hours including experience on flapped gliders should be plenty to fly any flapped glider.
