There was a commercial operation on the east coast (Georgia or the
Carolina's) that taught winch launching. They produced and sold an
instructional video on the subject. It sticks in my mind that the owner's
name was Derek Johnson, but I'm not sure of this. I bought a copy from him
and will look for it this evening.

You can download a commercial from 'Skylaunch winches'
(http://www.skylaunch.de)
or some good quality amateur video movies with winch launches from
'Nistal Wloczysiak' (http://www.gliding4life.com/english.htm)

Bill:

The Derek Johnson video turns out to be about autotow, not winching.
It's an instructional video and part of a series he was selling in the
early 90's. Never-the-less, if you think it would be useful, let me
know and I'll send a copy.

I'm starting to put together my presentation on winch launch for the SSA
convention in February and I need short video clips. Anything to do with
winch launch will do but those that tell a story about winch launch
operations will be especially appreciated.

Thanks.
