Default Emergencies on aerotow

We have parallel runways. Most of the time the wind is from the SW. We operate off the Left of the two runways. We maintain centerline and do not drift left. A glider having to release above 200 ft will need to turn left away from the right side runway traffic. If we are operating to the north, it's a right turn above 200ft to get back. Stay away from the opposite side runway and potential traffic. Centerline to centerline is about 300ft, so they are close. Know the airport is part of getting SA.
