The CG hook "problem" on aero tow is an airport myth. Nose hooks are a hardware solution to a software problem. Spend your money elsewhere - like a pneumatic tailwheel or spoiler mod.

Agreed, nose vs. cg hook is non-issue and gets way more attention than it really deserves. Most pilot woudn't notice any difference. Tail skid on the other hand is something that should have been left in 1910's and biplanes.. Just horrible thing to have in anything, royal pain in the ass everytime it touches ground.

Certainly in normal circumstances it isn't a problem.

In rotor with slack line I've pitch up when the rope suddenly becomes tight has been noticeable in a Janus, but easily dealt with.

Someone asked a while ago whether there was any history of towplane upsets with nose hook gliders. I don't recall that it was ever answered. You'd think that if it happens someone would be able to quickly point to an example or two.
