Ventus 2b vs ASW27b ..Which is the better / nicer aircraft?

You guys are making me feel bad about my recent purchase of a Ventus Ct 🤨

Ok maybe not. It was significantly less expensive then a Ventus 2 variant.
Plus my understanding is it's roughly 90% the performance of the V2...?

Anyway I'm happy with it at my skill and experience level.
As I have never been in a contest, I am considering MAYBE entering a regional contest or sports class competition this year.

Any how as regards the original post I reckon the best one between the 27 and the V2 is the one you happen to own (or end up owning) ;-)

Hypotheticals aside, because you'll never find one of each that is in the same condition with the same instruments and the same trailer.

Therefore, the nicer one is the one with less wear and tear on the interior and exterior. Total Time doesn't matter. It's how it's been taking care of.

The better one is the one with newer instruments and the nicer trailer.

And the best one is the one that comes up for sale that you can afford.

2 real cents from looking at a lot of gliders until finally buying one.
