Default Cirrus vs ASW

I have no idea how to get hold of the airfoil coordinates...

Hi Bert,

are the Pegase airfoil coordinates available somewhere?

I'd really be interested in a closer look at the Pegase's airfoil -
because I usually flew my ASW-20 with flap setting 3 (=neutral flaps)
while thermalling and got the impression that this setting would make
the 20 a very high performance standard class glider. In my opinion
the FX 62-K131 is a very good fixed wing airfoil.





Bye
Andreas
