Looks a bit sad for itself and obviously in the process of being dismantled. I see from the CAA website that its Airworthiness Review Certificate expired in July 2011, which suggests it will be more valuable parted out for spares than it is as a complete aircraft. It also has the nasty non-standard spring undercarriage. A gliding club down south has just reverted an aircraft with a similar undercarriage to the standard configuration of independent legs and damped bungee units.

Ahhh Pawnee - the 6 cyl engined versions were excellent glider tugs - in a single seat glider it was almost like a winch launch :)

Nice to see one still being used as a tug and thanks for the pic Ian.
