Obtained this sailplane as a basket case. Restored it and have no idea what it is. Have asked many others and have heard SailAir but can't find anything online about its lineage.
100" (+-) wing span. Plastic fuse. Full flying stab. Two piece wing w/ spar. Wing halves mount on the outside of fuse on each side. No ailerons. Just curious to find out the brand and it's given name and age.
Thanks in advance.

That looks like it should have been fabric covered, and painted a light blueish color.... and that the tail wood would be very very brittle and break at the slightest look..
