Jimmie,

All the information needed to conduct a safe winch launch with a K-8, or any
glider, is beyond the scope of this forum. Perhaps another reader with winch
experience can direct you to reading material and a site that could give you
winch launch instruction and a checkout. For the latter it would be helpful
to know where you fly.

I am new to using this site. Can anyone tell me about winch launching a
Ka8b and what one needs to expect. Thanks
