idonthaveone Visitor	Performance. - 2004/04/15 21:02 I am considering buying an ASW-15 (AS W-15?). One thing that I am unable to find is a review of the Sailplane. Some 500 were built so it 'was' obviously OK but a decent review would be reassuring. (The Libbelle for instance has several "This was the best glider I ever owned" type write ups). Thanks in anticipation.

Re:Performance. - 2004/04/15 21:03 You're right. There little information on the web about the asw15. That's a reason why I started this website.

Back to your question: Reichmann's book about soaring has the asw 15 as a starting point. And that book is still one of the bestselling books of soaring. Also there was a comparison between the Cirrus and the ASW15 in Aerokurier (in german) some years ago. A good story of the SSA about buying your first plane ishere.

In case of specific questions you can shoot them here in the forum.

mod Visitor	Re:Performance. - 2004/04/15 21:11 I have recently bought an ASW15 and am loving it. I found some info / review in Derek Piggots book Gliding Safety in the chapter on choosing a glider. So far that info has been ok. Michael

Re:Performance. - 2004/04/15 21:12 Could you share the information in Pigott's review in a summary with us?

idonthaveone Visitor	Re:Performance. - 2004/04/15 21:12 Well I bought the sailplane, ZK (NZ) GGT. A picture of it is at the top of page 2 of the gallery. It has been in a trailer for 5 years so needs a bird nest removal kit and a major to the aileron runs. The trailer is out of the ark but I own a sailplane, so who cares!

Re:Performance. - 2004/04/15 21:14 Congratulations! I wish you many great and safe flights. I guess you have to change your member name in "Ihaveone"

Cheers Johan

BTW Do you have a better photo of your ship?

ZK (NZ) GGT. A picture of it is at the top of page 2 of the galler

This pretty bad gif picture.
