Any comments pro or con about the Appleboy nose release?
Reportedly there are some PIK's, ASW's, LS's and Zuni's out there
with them.
Had the same request on gliderforum.com for a few days. A few views,
but no
comments. Perhaps someone here that I haven't already had an
exchange
with?
TIA,

There is one on my ASW 20. I have not used it to many times but it
seems
to work fine. It is a real pain to open it for the hook-up. Once it
releases and retracts there is nothing to grab a hold of to extend it.
A pocket knife or small screwdriver blade is needed to pull it out of
the fuselage far enough that you can open it.
