The least expensive improvement that many operations can make immediately is to adopt the use of longer tow ropes. The effect of pilot error is drastically reduced by this one simple change. Many places I fly as guest use ropes that are marginally short as matter of standard practice. We try not to use ropes shorter than 200 ft. UH Same practice at Sunflower Gliderport.
