Default What am I looking for?

My list of candidates:
What you didn't say is if you want to race someday in 15M class


LS-3/A
Glasflugel 303 Mosquito
Glasflugel 304CZ
DG200
LS-6


For slightly more advanced pilots
ASW-20 A/B/C
Ventus A/B/C


That looks a lot like my short list, BUT the LS-3 (and less so the 3A)
has fairly heavy wings and hotelier connections, I believe. So I'm not
crazy about that choice. The Mosquito sounds like a great choice, but
again I wonder about wing weight. [We rig on grass and a one-man
rigging thingie is not that easy to operate in a lumpy field]

Am I being silly in putting automatic connection so high on my list?
It just seems sensible to me and perhaps something that would make the
ship more marketable when I decide to move on or out in a few years.

Wad.


Buy as much performance as you can and don't look back...
