Rolf,
Maybe because no matter what you do to a dead horse it remains DEAD.
Unlike some who criticise it I've actually flown a PW5. It flew OK and I
got back into wind the 14 km or so to Matamata from my hour of ridge and
thermal but the experience was spoiled somewhat by Jim who insisted I fly
his Ventus C turbo 17.6 right after that to check the instruments. So I had
about two hours on the ridge doing it all again at twice the IAS.
The PW5 was a really dumb idea that saw the light of day because not enough
IGC delegates were smart enough to vote against it.
