From what has been written here over the last few days, it is
disappointing that a new flapped 20M two seater doesn't have as good
performance as a 15M unflapped glider.

You can get two people in a two seater and share the fun which is the
wholepoint of said two seaters. Without handicaps glider comps would be even
less viable.

Mike,
It’s all about driving a large fuselage through the air. The quite small size
difference between say, a Discus A and B fuselage makes an appreciable
difference in performance, particularly at higher speeds. Compare the massive
size difference between an ASG 29 and a two seater fuselage.
