Request for Germany driving information.

I am posting for a US pilot that has found out at sort of a late date
that he will compete at the world contest in Sweden. He would
appreciate any information in regards to renting a suitable tow vehicle
in Germany near or at the Frankfurt airport to collect a glider at
Poppenhousen and the best route for the drive North to Eskilstuna,
Sweden.
Thanks Chuck

Hello
Try this link
http://www.mapquest.com/directions/e...2ffi=&2ex=&2n=
You can insert any two addresses, and get a map and driving
instruktions. I used Mapquest last year when I visited Florida, and it
was a great help.

I would not rely on MapQuest for driving routes in Germany.

PS: I did get to see a lot more interesting scenery than planned
when I used MapQuest last fall...

For driving instructions http://www.falk.de/routenplaner/controller_rp.jsp
should be working. As to where to rent a towing vehicle ... neither Sixt,
Budget nor Europcar seem to have cars with a towing hook. Best email them
directly and ask. All of them have stations at the airport.

Greetings, Erik.

for driving instructions I can recommend www.viamichelin.com
I made very good experience with viamichelin in Spain, France, Germany,
Austria, Italy and Switzerland. The instructions were always highly
accurate.

This works where MapQuest did not.
Thanks Bear !
