Is this N79T that is mentioned at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross-Johnson_RJ-5. Quite a contest history of wins in that particular ship. Is there more than one RJ-5 out there?

Dick Johnson had a great article about his win in the 1963 Nationals held in Elmira. He was flying the Skylark 4, my father the repaired RJ-5 renamed RJK-5. He shares his impressions of flying against the sailplane he co-designed and built. It is in the December 1963 issue of Soaring. The actual contest report is in the August issue. These old reports (Soaring archives) are really great reading.

When George Moffat was reporting on Glider performance he claimed the RJ5 had a glide that was midway between the SGS2-32 and the Sisu 1-A.
