Very nice!

Was it size, weight, ease of assembly, one class design format? thanks, A valid question, though I can't give you a list in order of importance. I do like the light wings and easy assembly, It goes together easier than the Libelle I used to own. My old back can't handle the heavy wings like I used to. I like that it has a polyurethane finish instead of Gel coat, which I hope will save me some money when it comes time to refinish. I like the way it looks, the cockpit fits me well. I liked the price a lot when I bought it, it cost less than some first Gen and even many later model ships. But most importantly was when I had the opportunity to fly one. It was the easiest, most responsive thermaling ship I have ever flown. I really enjoyed the flight and have every other one since. Thanks for asking PW5 Flyer |

With all the comments about how to increase soaring numbers, how about
being positive to anyone that flys any type of glider- they are interested and excited about soaring. Would hate to visit a site and have this kind of talking going on- would tend to turn me to something else- power perhaps?
