Bob,

We had a Wilga land at the Nampa airport on 9/11. Being one of the
glider guys, I just had to get a few pictures.
http://www.soaridaho.com/Guest_Photos/Wilga.htm This is a PZL factory
paint job.

It doesn't look like a "Fiesler Storch" to me.


Though every bit as impressive in its own right.

9/11 - living just a few miles from Boeing Field and Seattle-Tacoma
International, I was amazed by how much quieter it got around here during
the days following. Other than an occasional military craft passing over at
altitude. Unnerving at first, not that it got a better quickly after
flights resumed. Suddenly my life-long thrill at watching the aluminum fly
overhead gained a dark shadow of "is he really in the pattern? Or a little
too low and too fast..."
