UFO???

Did (or does) Sonex make a V-tail motorglider?

Yesterday, we departed Falcon Field, South of Atlanta (also the home
of Aircraft Spruce East) and noticed traffic at about 10 O'clock high.
At first, I thought it was one of the Diamond Eclipse trainers that
routinely fly out of Falcon. Low wings with a high aspect ratio,
skinny aft fuselage, trigear... As we got closer, it was obvious that
it wasn't an Eclipse..

Why? Well, it was slower than the Diamonds, was relatively small, and
had a V-tail.

What was that thing?
