Does anyone have experience of using a Piper Cherokee 180 as glider tug and
how effective, or otherwise, it was?

I was towed by one at Hobbs long ago, and it was downright disturbing.
The towpilot (who was, admittedly, not way up there on the competence
scale) had a terrible time handling it at towing speed, and if you
held a Cherokee model in your hand and turned it this way and that,
you'd find very few viewing aspects I didn't see at one time or
another...;-)
