OK, two people agree on the strings to use, but what are the semantics?
What sentence would go in the wiki to describe a) when to use the value
and b) what the value implies once it is in the OSM data? 

It sounds like it might be something like: 

base: the end station with the lower altitude 
head: the end station with the higher altitude 
mid: any station, not being a base or a head station, irrespective of
the altitude 

note: based purely on altitude, not arrival/departure inclination 

As to which key to use, how about aerialway:station={base,mid,head}?
