Default Tow plane ideas

Not so noisy if the pilot would only reduce propeller RPM after
achieving a safe climb.Â* I was the only tuggie at Moriarty who did
that.Â* The others make ear shattering noise as they over fly the
hangars.Â* They still have full propeller RPM after release.Â* Some people
never learn...

Probably also good to consider noise issues if sensitive neighbors are a concern. All of the CS props are noisy as heck -
especially the 260 hp Pawnee and the Callair when either has a CS prop.
