DG Differences...

Its not just about what one pilot would notice. Its about market
effects and perception. The DG-200 is not perceived by the market as
being desireable at the same level as the DG-300 or an ASW-20.

I'm looking at this from the standpoint of safety, market-value,
resale speed, trailer quality, finish quality, age of manufacture -
all in addition to pure performance.

I am incredibly thorough in my research about gliders (some might say
I'm obsessed) - and the DG-300 and ASW-20 floated to the top for a
variety of reasons. Some of which are mainstream reasons, and some of
which are personal preferences.

Now if only I'd win the lottery so I could just buy a brand new
glider... *grin*
