After ~250 aerotows, I recently got my winch endorsement. It was much
easier than I expected and I hope to do a lot more of them this summer
(should it ever arrive).

With the encroachment of urban development on many of our glider
operations and the price of gas (it *will* spike again), I believe
that winch launching is the future of our sport, whether we like it or
not. So, let's embrace the future.

Rolf if you get a winch I hope you'll share your club's experience
here.
