Thank you for the pics--my Dad (F/O Winfred E. Patterson) and Jack Streeter flew almost all of the test flights at Clinton County AAF in the XCG-14. They were initially towed by a P-47!! This info is in the Silent Wings book by Charles Day. My Dad said the glider didn't handle all that well.  My Dad also did all the initial flight testing on the XCG-15.
 
Regards, Tom Patterson
