Number of aero tows in 2011

I'm working on some numbers for SSA Growth and Development. I need a SWAG as to how many aero tows were made in the US in 2011. Anyone care to guess? I know there are about 210 tugs, some more active than others. If each made 20 tows a week, 52 weeks a year, that would be 218,000 tows but I suspect that weather, seasonal and other factors would reduce that to about 100,000 - that's my guess. Anyone care to differ or offer another number? Over 1400 at Sugarbush, Vt. 1FL

Number of aero tows in 2011
With 40 organizations reporting we have 38,518 tows for 2011. My 100,000 tow guess looks like it might be in the ballpark. C'mon folks, I need more data - especially from commercial operations.
