On Sunday, October 17th we held our annual Aerotow. Here are some of the pictures:
Mike had something to add:
We did it
It was nasty, 45 degrees in the morning and then barely reached 50. Sky was fully covered with clouds and winds reaching 25m/h.
Tows were spectacular. Hop over the tree line, correct the heading straight to the wind and maintain climb in motionless flight. We were reaching 1500 feet in less then 2 minutes no matter what size of the glider was on tail.
You think there is no thermals in such cold an cloudy day.
You better get yourself big good looking glass slipper and let me tow you to 500m. Those big ones seems like wind is not much of the bother.
Yap!
no casualties
some cracked( out of the cold) monocote covering on some vintage ships.
Rest of them got back home the way arrived to the field, but with lots of new experience
Had a Great Time
Thanks a lot Fellows
