I've recently been reading an article in Sailplane & Glider about the new
AS35, https://www.alexander-schleicher.de/en/we-present-the-new-as-35-mi/

which reminded me a lot of the Concordia, because the AS35 seems in many
ways to be a smaller development in that its also a smaller Open glider,
and hence more manoeverable in traffic, as well as using a small, highly
loaded wing. In addition, some of the current AS design team were also
involved with Concordia.

Most of what I found out about Concordia is on the excellent Concordia
website,

https://concordia-sailplane.com/

but it is incomplete, so first question: is the website still a work in
progress or has work on it stopped?

Further web searches turned up remarkably little more material about
Concordia, which reminded me that I've heard almost nothing about it
since its appearance and 7th place at the Uvalde WC, so does anybody on
r.a.s know what's been happening with it since Uvalde?

It's been raced in several Regionals and Nationals through the 2019 season.

Good to hear. How has it done? I don't usually see US racing results or
know where to find them.

They are ostensibly on the SSA's website, but I could not find any results for most of the contests.

I think, but haven't confirmed, that Dick Butler flew the Concordia in each of the following contests/open class since WGC2012. He did not register for the cancelled 2020 Open Class Nationals nor for the 2021 contest.

2019 2019 Open Class and 18 Meter Class Nationals 5
2019 Region 5 North 1
2018 15-Meter and Open Class Nationals 1
2018 Region 5 North 1
2017 2017 15 Meter, Open, and Standard Class Nationals 2
2016 2016 15 meter, Open, and Std Nationals 2
2016 Region 5 North 1
2015 18 Meter, Open and US Club Class Nationals 1
2015 Region 5 North 1
2014 Region 5 North 1
2013 2013 15 Meter/Open Class Nationals 2

Last I heard Dick was working on adding an electric sustainer system. He flew the Etabiter at Perry this year.
