It goes without saying that one must communicate their desired tow speed with the tow pilot (especially when faster than normal) and request more speed during the tow if necessary That said, it is easier said than done at the high density altitude in the west, especially with non powerful tow planes. Releasing from tow is often not a good option when you just lifted off at the far end of the runway fully ballasted. Ramy Hi sorry for the thread creep I have just Changed to a Ventus 2c after 1500 without flaps. As briefed I roll in negative flap and change to +2 when I am sure that I have aileron control.The tug pilot knows all this and tows me at 70+knts. Am I now at the flap limit for positive flaps? Last flight I was happy up to 70 but above I chose to go to 0. Jon |
