Default Pw5 is the best for any class.

Time for the annual PW5 discussion.

After reading all the negative posts here for years about how bad the
PW5 is and how it is leading to the downfall of Soaring around the
world, I have come to a realization.

It is FEAR. Yes, all these hotshots who put down this ship simply could
not compete against other
sailplane pilots on a level playing field. They need their big wallets
to stay competitive.

Most of them couldn't stay in the air in a ship of less than 40:1. Put
these guys in a PW5 and Lennie
the Lurker could fly circles around them in his 1-26.

PW5's are the perfect ship for a new generation of competition pilots.
BAH, HUMBUG on your LS-4$, they stopped making them for a reason.
PW-5's Forever ; )

Nah... not I...

Its something I might have posted here 2 years ago but RAS has turned
into one big love fest these days and everyone has lost their sense of
humour.
Where are the flame wars and flying wing bashing threads?

You are absolutely right, but PLEASE... it's impolite to disparage
those who, through no fault of their own, are cursed with the means to
buy the very best. Yes, they can only measure themselves against others
with the same special challenges. But the illusion is everything. So
please be gentle; most their egos are very fragile. Encourage their
effort. It means more to them than you can know. And they'll take their
fleeting moments of triumph, however small, into every other aspect of
their lives.
