ASW 20 BL polar file
I think what Bert was saying was that a little lift
on the glide, and your 20 will match a 20B. Or a little sink on the run, and your 20B will fall behind a 20. I would start off with the stock 20 polar, or maybe shift it better by 2 or 3 MPH for the same sink rates. Fly this, and see how your plane does relative to that polar. Just think how happy you will be if your glider is better than the polar you enter into your glide computer (you get home higher than you thought you could!) and how sad you will be if it is not as good as the polar (you keep meeting cows and farmers within 5 miles of your home field). Remember, the differences between serial numbers of the same model can be far mor than the difference between models. Start conservative, and work up to what it really can do. My nickel's worth.
