Concerning the Tow Plane position while on tow, two of my CFIs have
said to position yourglider as if you were going to Machine Gun the
pilot of the Tow Plane. this is equivelent of aligning the horizontal
of the TP with a portion of his foweward fuslage, like the wheels on a
Pawnee.

Works great in all conditions I've come accross in 15 years flying 8
different types from 2-33 to Duo Discuss. Never been criticized for it
either in BFRs.
