Compulsion Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Brings back fond memories of my flying at Gawler. You guys flying the tug deserve a medal when towing students. I lost it on takeoff once and nearly dragged the tug off the strip. I just wish I could get the hang of landing the Jab like I could land a glider. God I miss my air brakes.

It's a challenge sometimes! But I enjoy towing, it keeps you flying accurate and on the ball. You can tell what stage a glider pilot is up to when towing them... the top pilots you literally hardly feel them on behind, beginners, well... you keep your hand near the eject lever! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
