There's nothing worse than to be topped off with water and saying "another
15 kts please" over and over with each iteration rising an octave as you say
it. Tom did the right thing...except now he needs to take the tow pilot
behind the woodshed for a "readjustment of his towing procedures!"

The tow pilot was new, and he went straight up
on me on takeoff, I started to dangle, and whew, I released as I was
stalling.
I had enought alitude to pull landing flap which helped me nose over and
then
barely got the nose up before a tera firma landing. I had the 27 at 1102
lbs.
and even spoke with the tow pilot on the radio before accepting launch.


One has to wonder who signs off some of these tow pilots. Glad you
survived the experience.
