Sorry, KM, I'm just too stupid to tell when you mean what you write and
when you don't. I'll try harder, I really will.

Jack, with all your experience towing, have YOU ever
seen such a thing?
I don't know if a sailplane can impose a 6000 lb load on a tow plane.
I have just enough experience towing to know it takes only a fraction
of that loading for the tow plane to run out of pitch control, and it
didn't take much experience to find that out.
