and selling one or two PW-5's to each other?

The 4,000 figure counts attempted sales as well as actual sales, and
also counts every time a PW-5 owner whishes he had never bought the
damned thing.

Add to this also:

PW-ULS - experimental design (glider's mass = pilot's mass)
PW-2 Gapa - open cockpit light glider
PW-3 Bakcyl
PW-4

I think the sum of them all should close in 50 gliders.

Thanks for the glider sales numbers. They are much higher than I would have
guessed.
