Which 18m FES sailplane to buy?
With the Ventus 3 on the way it would be daft to order a new Ventus 2 now - with or without FES - unless it was agreed that it would be a V3 when it arrived.
The V2cx is not a flapped Discus 2c. They have completely different wings. The D2c (I bought the first production one new) is a superb handling 15/18m glider that is very suitable for a low time pilot.

Which 18m FES sailplane to buy?
Purchasing rules for gliders are quite simple...
If you want flaps buy Schleicher If you don't want flaps buy Schempp (Schleicher don't do FES, (Yet)) PF At 09:30 09 December 2015, wrote: With the Ventus 3 on the way it would be daft to order a new Ventus 2 now - with or without FES - unless it was agreed that it would be a V3 when it arrived.
