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


We have/had a few of them in Sweden. They have a long take off run, but
once airborne they climb more or less like a Super Cub. The gliding club
of Eksiltuna (site of the WGC 2006) had one for many years. They put a
silencer and a four bladed Hoffmann prop on it. Worked quite well.
