Go to http://www.luftarchiv.de/ and select 'English'. Then select from
the main menue Misc. Apparatus and scroll down to the photo showing a
He-111 being 'winch-launched'. Not exactly a glider but nevertheless, a
clever idea to get a power plane airborne quickly and much cheaper than
with RATO or JATO devices.

Thats a great site for gliders and Luftwaffe aircraft in general. Thanks
for posting the reference.

You are welcome! I find this site very educational and factual, without
the usual political ballast.
