Hi,
It has been many years since I have been doing aerotows.And since then my Wilga has been sitting neglected in my basement. The friend I used to tow moved away. The guys I fly with were not really proficient enough in the art of aerotowing to pull me up. After a long pause in my sailplane flying, I decided to go with scale SLS, yet to have a successful flight ( another story floating elsewhere here ). Anyway, I decided to pull the Wilga out and just fly it. Maybe I'll be able to teach someone to tow. My Wilga is kind of a Mule. no time spent on scale details, purely a utility Mule. It has had it's share of mishaps ( not me at the controls ), wing snap in half, fuselage broken in half... all repaired. Now I did manage to wreck a Wilga ( won't get into the details). It least when I do it, I do it beyond repair ( never did like to do things half way ). Attached are some pic of my tow Mule.
Joel
