Right - putting a winch cable onto a concrete runway which is used by
commercial traffic would push the limits a little bit.

But I rather was commenting on winch launch from controlled airfield.

I've flown for years on a public airport (Braunschweig) in Germany with a
CTR, jet aircrafts, parachuters and 4 double-drum winches operated by 5

once in a while.

But Braunschweig has a wide grass area parallel to the paved runway. This
does not apply to most public airfields in the US.
