in view is Lee giving the Pawnee crop duster/come tow plane a good rev before he literally drags that ultra light glider off the grass onto the runway and into the aire within a 100 feet or so...check the VID by clicking on the image (download may take a bit)...

Lee tells us that "the glider is a PW-5 built by PZL-Swidnik (Poland), the winner of a multi-year effort by the Federation Aeronautique International to select a design around which to build a new, affordable, but high performance glider competition class - kind of a "Formula Ford" class for gliders"...quite lovely we say...
