Nyal wrote.What is the downside,
other than cost, in using such a device? Don't know of a down side, Nyle, but I know of a great big Positive side. I watched a tow rope catch the wing tip of a glider waiting to launch. Spun it around and the wing hit the pilot in the back. Only reason this pilot wasn't killed was because she was wearing a parachute which took the impact. Dangling ropes are dangerous. All the FBO's where I fly use take-up reels. JJ Sinclair
