Default Looking for Udo Rumpf's auto tow pulley system sold on W&W last year.

Uli,
Yes, this is where I have seen the pictures of his system. So far I have done about 50 auto tows the past few weeks. Now I want to do a reverse pulley launch to see if I can get to at least 1,200 - 1,500 feet off of a 3,300 foot runway with a 15 kt headwind. This would get me high enough to get to a local ridge and then into the wave. I want to be able to fly from this airport (Talihina, OK) with the dependency of a tow plane.

Randy


don't know who picked up the pulley system but did you know that Udo created a photo album about it on winchdesign?
