Hi Jon,
The tail mounting tow bar is only available by special order, if at
all. We have changed over to a nose mounted tow bar which works very
well. It connects via the tow hook and the main-gear axle. I will send
you a picture by separate/direct email. with pricing etc.

As for assembly I use an 'Udo' rig which works excellently for one-man
assy. Let me know if you need his web address. He advertises in
Soaring and his product, while a bit pricey, is exceptional.

I also have other accessories available for upgrading the Smyk with
some of the B-1 PW5 improvements. Seat with integral headrest,
apholstery, larg instrument panel, etc.

End of advertisement! Please contact me for additional details and
products.

Hello,
Has anyone got any plans or photos or ideas for towout gear to suit a PW5. I
would appreciate anything that would be helpful for ideas.

Looks like I may have to make up a set for my Club.

Thank you in advance.
