But surely only the ones with winch experience teach
winch launching? So it's not an issue? And surely
no-one goes from aerotow to winching without getting
some instruction?


I'm sure that it's a rare situation. Fortunately, there is a lot of good
guidance on the web about winch proceedures from various national aero clubs
and quite a few instructors who read this guidance.
