Abstract
MiniBooNE [1] and MINERvA [2] charge current {\pi} + production data in the Delta region are discussed. It is argued that despite the differences in neutrino flux they measure the same dynamical mechanism of pion production and should be strongly correlated. The correlation is clearly seen in the Monte Carlo simulations done with NuWro generator but is missing in the data. Both normalization and the shape of the ratio of measured differential cross sections in pion kinetic energy are different from the Monte Carlo results, in the case of normalization a discrepancy is by a factor of 1.49.
