Towing Accident Rate vs GA?
I know that I can review the NTSB database and answer this myself but I am hoping that someone else has already done the homework.
Two Questions 1. What is the accident, incident and/or fatality rate of towing gliders vs GA? 2. Same question but comparing glider flying in general to GA. I don't recall ever hearing statistics for #1 above. Tom Knauff has referred to statistics that suggest flying gliders is slightly more dangerous than GA(maybe it was comparing gliders to driving your car). Thanks, Jamie Shore
