Hi Guys,

I'm curious if any of you guys have ever tried to self launch with no
wing man on a cg hook only glider. I have skids on my wingtips as
well. Would you put the wing that's on the ground further forward at
start? What's the technique!!
I think this is why having a cg hook is a disadvantage.

Regards,

Jerz


Yes, from remote fields. It's no problem, but the dust cloud from the tow
plane is sometimes pretty wild, especially if it's the first time you've
encountered it.
