If you are in the US, towing gliders with experimental aircraft is

That seems silly.

Sure, taking some random aircraft and using it to tow a glider would be
a silly idea, but surely it's ok to design and build your own
experimental aircraft for the specific purpose of towing gliders!

I seem to recall an experimental aircraft called "White Knight"
air-dropping a glider called "SpaceShipOne", with the FAA administrator
present.
