However, Chris does seem to be intimating that it's possible to structurally damage a glider during a winch launch from overspeeding. Providing the correct weak is used, that is not possible. Old myths die hard though. Why, then, is the winch launch maximum speed not Vne? Ian

If I understand it correctly, flying at maximum winch speed or below ensures that you won't lose your wings even if you use a wrong weak link or no weak link at all. Bartek
