Default Airspeed control during ground launch?

Hi Bill,

The winch should be constructed such that it is not be possible for the
airspeed to increase as a result of raising the glider's nose. Otherwise,
the winch should be regarded as dangerous.


Is it such a problem to teach the pilot to pull the release if his
airspeed exceeds the desired prameters?



Bye
Andreas
