I usually put my sailplanes away for the winter, but this winter I would like continue doing some flying. I fly on a large athletic field in Philadelphia and am looking for suggestions for good windy weather (25 mph) sailplanes with wingspans of 60" or less that would be suitable for launching with a high start on flat terrain.
Presently I am flying my DAW 1-26 hlg and I just load it up with lead when it is real windy. Would a sailplane made for slope flying be what I am looking for? I would like something that can fly fast so that I can cover a lot of ground and penetrate into the wind. I am willing to sacrifice thermalling qualities for speed. Any suggestions? Thanks.
