Ground launch and the incremental vanishing of soaring

Kutztown Airport in Kutztown, PA (commercial public use) offered winch
launch until they recently sold their winch. I do not believe that
there was enough interest to support its upkeep.

Within the past several weeks we aero towed from a towered airport in
Harrisburg, PA to retrieve a Blanik which received service there.
While coordination with the tower was necessary, we had no problems,
and must praise the tower personnel for their assistance.
