Default PW-5 longitudinal pitch oscillation

Hi Chris -

61 flights and 96 hours in my PW-5 - mostly in MN. I can only remember once that the tail lifted in a thermal due to a vertical gust.

There were no issues at all. The PW-5 just flew itself out of the gust and continued circling.

The PW-5 is the easiest theramlling glider I've flown.

Lou
