Default Condor News ---- 2 October 2018

In the last month we have released 2 new gliders - The Ventus 3 in 15m and 18m, and the ASK21.

Condor development continues apace.

ASW27 is the same as ASG29 in 15m, and we are adding that soon.

An older glider, with particularly unique handling characteristics like the Phoebus, would be great. Particularly with this glider, which is so "responsive" (AKA "squirly"), would be a great learning tool to get some practice in without the risk of crashing it. This would be an ideal use of technology like Condor, I would think.

We thank everybody for their feedback. This helps to make Condor great!

If you want a responsive ship in Condor, do try the Swift S1. Thats really responsive.

ASH31 is on the list but its quite a way down. So many planes .. so little time..

Condor 2 is a big improvment over the already good Condor1 and the fleet is growing nicelly good matches for almost all categories except Club Class and Open Class.

I think you should prioritize some Club Class to fly against the Standard Cirrus ASW-19 is my favorite but LS-1 or Libelle might be a more balanced aproach.

We agree. EB29R will be along this winter, and I'm just about to get club class started. ASW19 and 20 will be first

There were ~50% more standard Libelles built (601) than ASW-19 (425) so maybe that should be on the list after the 20. Just sayin...
