Name that Sailplane

From the shameless self promotion department: There is a photo of a glider at the top of page 12 in the January, 2009 issue of the Atlantic Flyer. Can you name the aircraft? Bonus question; where is it based? Not sure what the winner will receive but I can assure you it will not be expensive or coveted by others. Then again, it might be beer. In the case of a tie, the winning answer is based solely on my discretion which is questionable at best. Bribes considered.

  1. My answer (based on quickscan of the AF website articles which do not have page #s and so maybe not from page 12...):

    Aircraft: PW-5

    Base: Kevin Brooker's garage

  2. It's obviously the one-of-a-kind Stratocruiser Silent, based at Area 51.

  3. Oh wait...Skip's right. It appears to be a PeeWee after all. Probably based in Nathan's toy box.

  7. That's hilarious. I bet Kevin is glad that Jill never reads PMSC News.
