Also gaining height (in order to shorten the tow) by a towplane with glider behind is much, really much easier and less stressing when using a short 20-30m rope. I meant gaining height in a towplane with a glider behind, by using the thermal to support the tug's climb rate. If the combo has found a thermal, why wouldn't the glider just release and save money? Therre have been plenty of times that I've intended to tow to 2000 or 2500 ft but then released in a thermal at 1000 - 1500 ft. -- Bruce |
