Obviously, a CG hook would be necessary for an auto or winch tow. Initial
acceleration could bring the tow rope off the ground and reduce prop to rope
clearance. if the tail comes up, bad things could happen.
The prop would be folded during the tow, so there would not be any concern about
clearance; ie, a normal aero or auto/winch tow.
