and don't forget the glider tow hook


Yep, that was the first thing I noticed that was missing.

Although soaring is great, I'm not stopping my fun to tow planes into
the air! I'll leave that to the Pawnees of the world.

Yes, but you could put the thing to work making its own payments. I have
spent many hours contemplating the tail feathers of a Maule from 200 feet back.
In general, I would much prefer to be following a Pawnee, but they tend to be
single-purpose machines.

I picked Pawnee for the reference be cause the soaring FBO at Hemet
uses them for their tow planes. Followed one on tow for the first
time a few weeks ago. Soaring is a lot of fun. I hope to pursue
adding the ticket. A friend of mine is asking me to go in 50% on a
single seat sailplane. He just bought a Pitts and hasn't picked it up
yet...he had so much fun soaring the same weekend I tried it, he
already wants a second plane. *sigh* He is single and I am married
with a stay at home wife and two kids in private school. It is worth
it. It is worth it. It is worth it.
