Hi,

My guess is that it is an HP-18. *But I don't remember if HP-18s have a
metal or fiberglass tail boom.

Several of our members have recently been surveying possible landing
strips for our contest database and Steve Koerner came across an old
crashed glider in the Arizona desert.....

Registration was N71JR.

V-tail, large flaps, no spoilers. *Our best guess so far is some sort
of HP, but the glider construction seems to have been more composite
than aluminum, so this may be off-base.

Suggestions and speculation welcome!

The HP-18 fuselage aft of the wing is metal.
