To Pawnee or not to Pawnee...that is the question...
I bet a fair few Falkes are being used as tugs in Germany - any of our
members from over there know?
Bleurgh, it would help if I RTFA I linked to. At least 20 are used for
towing over there, and that was in 2001. A good point made in the
article is also that, of course, a motorglider tug still gets used for
circuit training, field landing exercises etc., and all that ups
utilisation and lowers costs. And it is damned quiet - ours is *much*
quieter than our Pawnee.
