At those upper latitudes, both gravity and the coriolis effect are
significantly less, therefore excess rope is not required. ;-) Similarly, Cessna 172's are sufficient for tows...since 182's are for high altitude tours. :-)) Pete #309 On Nov 14, 4:30 pm, "BT" wrote: WOW... a 40ft tow rope... brave those CAPrs..

They had a 200ft rope.
It is interesting how the media gets so much wrong in the daily rags. The 172 is still anemic, however 1/2 tanks and a 4,000 ft paved runway it gets 400fpm. Would be better if it had a climb prop. Jeff Banks
