*Abnd it's end of season, so we need to know if the Minimoa or the

There can be no doubt that with form following function, beauty *in
the eye of the beholder, that the GAPA PW-2 is the most beautiful
sailplane ever designed. The lineage of the PW-5 is apparant in the
design of it's tail, and the influence of the Italians who designed
the
VESPA is obvious in it's elegant windscreen.
