IGC decided to keep PW-5 as an World Class glider for another four

The next World Class Worlds will take place in 2010 in Slovakia and
2012 in Adolfo Gonzalez Ch=E1vez (Argentina) . God bless their wisdom.


Real wisdom would have introduced a two seater 20m class to replace the
World Class. PW-5 participation has been shrinking while a two seater
class
would get twice the number of pilots involved, with great training
potential.
