We need an ASW-19 rebirth for $25,000
Naysayers, naysayers!!! Are you guys really pilots? Aren't soaring pilots supposed to be optimists?
The same nonsense statements were said about the wright brothers.
A PW-5 cost $18,500 new.
Using an inflation calculator, that would be $29,487 in today's money.
I'm talking about a "barebones" glider, no frills. No blowholes, no winglets, no water ballast, no flaps, just the absolute basics. Nothing but basic instruments, no upholstery, just a seat pan.
If it happened with the PW-5, it can happen again....just this time needs to be with a 15 meter wingspan and a t tail.
