The Politechnika Warszawska PW-2 (English: Warsaw Polytechnic PW-2), also called the PW-2 Gapa, is a Polish lightweight high-wing, strut-braced single-seat, glider that was designed and built at the Warsaw University of Technology and also produced by DWLKK in the early 1990s.
[4][5][6] The PW-2 was designed as a lightweight glider of modest performance with an open cockpit.
Its 11.0 m (36.1 ft) span wing employs an American-designed NACA 4415 airfoil.
The maximum glide ratio is 16:1 at 69 km/h (43 mph)[2][7] In August 2011 five PW-2Ds were registered in the United States with the Federal Aviation Administration.
