https://youtu.be/IOKYxQOya6M There is no question anymore. It’s been proven. The new 18 meter class world champion certainly believes that the Schleicher AS-33 is the world’s best sailplane. By factor of task speeds to wingspan and price, it clearly is.
I'm getting back on the saddle and going all in. Davis Chappins has been building up a huge group of pilots and they are flying extremely well. It's a challenge to compete with them, but im getting after them on Tuesdays and Thursdays (Condor Club Competitions US Soaring) and doing various other Condor Events. The SSA is starting to get involved, more soon! Thank you Davis, Andy, and the US Soaring gang. Great discord channel to check out, also contained in the US Soaring Condor Club competition page.
