The Pegase would fit the bill perfectly.
The LS-4 or Jantar Std 3 as well, but they would cost a bit more.

So some of you really don't think to highly of the Speed Astir. What then
would
be your recommendations for a first glider for a low time pilot training &
soloing in a G103 II A? I need something under $20,000. that will keep me
happy
for a while. Thanks for your input!
