We have a SZD 55 that was purchased with a aerotow
hook only, the fittings for the mounting of the hook
on the U/C leg and the cable guide on the wheel well
were already there (factory)
The problem we have.on fitting the winch hook....is
the range of movement of the 2 hooks is hugely different,
Both are the correct Tost hooks
We can operate the Aerotow OR Winch hook independently
without problems, however when connecting them in unison,
the aerotow hook range of movement ,restricts the winch
hook...
So anyone got a good photograph of the aerotow hook,
lever assy and cable routing please

Contact Jerzy Szemplinski with Windpath Corporation. He is based in
Toronto and he is the SZD dealer for North America and owner of the 55.

Hi Keith:

Could you please get in touch with me regarding the wing tip skids I
sent you 4 months ago?

Thanks,

Suggestion: you can either adjust the useful length of the actuation arm =
at each release or connect both to the release knob using a pulley, =
which makes their travel independent from each other.
