Tow plane airspeed vs. glider being towed airspeed?
Asked a question I could not answer yesterday.....
Why does the towplane indicated airspeed always indicate so much higher than
the glider behind? As much as 10 knots. Consistent with the Pipers, Cessnas and
Grummans.
And yes, compensated for kts. vs. mph.
Thanks,
Michael
