Thanx Andy.. I was wondering what his problem was also..
we get TBO and better from our Pawnee O-540 with this operating technique.
Glider Tow is hard duty on an engine.

What, if any, of this relates to the original posting. Could you
perhaps post only those parts.

Before I passed comments on anyone's letdown procedure I'd like to know
what airplane/engine was being used.

I've flown several tugs and jump planes and I operated them all the way
the owner, or chief tow pilot, asked me to do. There are certainly
differences of opinion but it's seems unwise to know better than the
person who will pay for the repairs. ( No I had a much better way than
you showed me, sorry about the cracked jug. Let me know when you want
me to fly next)
