First flown in the autumn of 1929 the PWS-9 was a two/three seat sports and touring biplane. The seating was pilot and one passenger in the rear open cockpit, and the second passenger in the front cockpit. Behind the rear cockpit was a luggage compartment.

The PWS-8 was not built in large numbers.

One PWS-8, SPADA, took part in the 1930 European Challenge Cup and Completion ‘Rundflug’.
