Number of aero tows in 2011
Philadelphia Glider Council in 2011 - 2,390 tows with two tow planes,
a Pawnee and an L-19. For 2012 we are at 2,456 tows to date and will
fly through Dec 31 as long as weather and field conditions permit. It
raised a few eyebrows when we told the folks at PHL ATC that we do
about 10,000 take-off and landing operations per year.
