Default Help!

None better then Parowan IMHO-

Glider is pushed out to end of runway...pilot gets
in, straps, GPS, logger, etc, etc. Then the second
tow rope is hooked up to the glider.

The towplane lands with the other rope still connected
facing the glider....taxis up facing the glider, drops
the rope on the side of the runway, turns 180 degrees,
is hooked up to the glider connected rope, tightens
the rope and waits for the rudder wag.

If done correctly the towplane never stops rolling!!

Obviously one needs an airport that can allow this,
but Parowan is a public airport.
