The only ships I know of with dihedral on the T-tail is the Adastra
the D-36/ASW12 and the Lark. I'm sure there are others in the vintage
group, but not anything modern that I know of. Contest #10 at Szeged
is the LS-10 Vladimir Folton is flying for Slovakia. Wingtip looks
correct for a 10, but that tailplane... is it an LS 10 with a custom/
experimental tailplane -or- that modded D-36 maybe?

It's an illusion caused by wing behind tail in photo.
D-36 and ASW-12 had no dihedral in stab.

One clue would be that little red "DG" sticker :-)

Photo 56 in the series shows the glider from the other side and no dihedral to be seen on the tailplane

Funny that nobody so far had the idea to just look at the home page of
the WGC Szeged. :-)
And the winner is... (Hint: incidentally or not, the contest sign
happens to have a meaning.)

You guys would not very good forensic image analysts.
What looks like dihedral in the tailplane of the LS-10 is the wing of
the plane in the background.

That LS plane "10" in the picture actually looks like an 18m LS-6. The wingtips are smaller, and the fuselage landing gear is not the larger sized wheel used on the 10.
My guess, and LS-6c18w

Just Google OM-1010 and Airliners.net shows several pics - it's an LS10.
The DG logo wasn't the only clue on the fin!
