Yep, the Dwarf model Schemp is the machine of choice for 15M in crap
conditions!
After spending 3 weeks in a V2B I have a lot of respect for them, however for
numerous reasons there is NFW I would trade my 29 for one!
The 29 owners flew 18M so not many to compare. How many V2 -15s in Aus?
I would like to try a 29 in 15M, however that class is dead in Australia for
new gliders - 18M is the way to go!
Bernard may be happy with Bruce's choice of glider for Uvalde next year! ;]

The e-mail I sent was literally meant to be a cheeky one, knew it'd cause a
stir amongst readers. As I saw it, the comment to not to bother with the other
classes basically meant - that most would, & they'd see the full picture..
I noticed that the AS gliders were the machine of choice in 18m, they sure are
a great machine! I just didn't want to admit it :)
Safe Circles,
