"Vaguely similar" does not quite cover "you can see where they taped over the vents in the mould", I think... Ian

Ian Indeed, and while we're at it, yes the handling of the Pegase and ASW19 are very different. The handling of the Pegase and the ASW20, on the other hand, are very similar.

FAA Revoking Standard Airworthiness Certificate DG-505
The previous owner of my ASW-19b bought a Pegase (to get the new Cobra
trailer it came with), and when I asked how the ships compared he said "the ASW-19 handled like a sports car while the Pegase felt like a truck". -John On Oct 20, 11:45 am, Andrew Warbrick wrote: Indeed, and while we're at it, yes the handling of the Pegase and ASW19 are very different.

So, if i compare your post with the preceding post claiming that the Pegase has the same handling as the ASW 20, i deduce that the ASW 20 handles like a truck! The truth is that the ASW19, the Pegase and the ASW20 each have different wings and handle differently. The fuselage is a completly minor aspect of the ship, the wings are vastly more important. The ship which is of the same category as the Pegase is rather the LS4, although with a different handling. -- Michel TALON
