Well if we are going to consider the context in which the particular
gliders were designed.. you can correct me if I am wrong, but I do
believe the entire PW line (including the PW5) was designed by
Engineering STUDENTS in the Warsaw Polytechnic and not by a professional
design bureau. PZL and now The Glider Factory in Jezow were/are
producing the glider but did not design it. As far as it's two
competitors for the world class the SZD-51and the AC4, the Junior is
definitely a very pretty and great flying bird, but I don't think the
Russia will win any beauty contests (IMHO)... either way, i would
rather fly any of these three, or the Cherokee II or the Woodstock for
that matter.. instead of sitting here on the ground wishing it was spring
