Tow plane types/mods for high density altitude glider towing
A 300-hp Ag Wagon works just fine at 9,500' density altitude.Â* Quite
comfortable for the tow pilot, too! On 8/12/2019 8:58 PM, JS wrote: On Monday, August 12, 2019 at 6:57:00 PM UTC-7, wrote: Ag-Cat with Wasp Jr.! Jerry Marshall's 400HP Brave! He never did get the turbine Brave ready for towing. Jim -- Dan, 5J

Jim -- Dan, 5J Our situation here in Florida is quiet different because of our MSL. I have a Pawnee with 180 hp. It does very well for the most part. I also have a 235 Pawnee that is certainly more powerful, but After all is said I would rather have the 180 Pawnee for my personal use. We call it the Yellow Gorilla, and it has done a great job for our club.
