PW-5 World Class Glider

It's the Pilot that makes the difference

Glider Tuning


This section is dedicated to glider tuning. By glider tuning I don't mean changing any thing illegal. That would be counter productive! The PW-5 is a single class design and it has to stay that way.

This section is about tips and hints on how to clean the glider, what is the optimum weight and balance, how to install an oxygen system etc.

This is the place you can discuss repairs, AD's, any thing that you think should be shared with the PW-5 community.

Start uploading those beautification tips!
