Blanik Weak Link for Winch Launch??? by Gary Emerson
I'm really curious what weak link people are using to winch launch Blaniks with. If you are using the CG bridle, do you use the blue tost weak link (in the BGA list) or a stronger one? Blue seems too weak and wants to break frequently and under only moderate climb angles. The L-13 manual...

Decathlon for towplane?? by Deputy Dog
Anyone out there have any experience with using a Decathlon for a tug? I have towed with Citabria 7GCBC and wonder how it would compare since it has symetrical (sp?) airfoil vs. the flat bottom of the Citabria. Got a buddy considering both. -Deputy Dog
