I'v been told by seller that the glider is sold. No futher information
available.

SZD-54 Perkoz is the only flying glider of this design in the
world. It was to be a sucession to Puchacz. Bancrupcy of SZD prevented
production of this very good glider. Two of them was made. Protoype 1
and improved prototype 2 ( bigger wheel, lighter tail boom , redesign
wing attachements) Do not know which one was for sale, but guess that
the one before improvements.The other is in Museum of Aviationin in
Cracow, Poland.
