On this page (http://www.zweefvlieg.net/index.cfm?....pagina&id=279) you can find some information on the winch the Aeroclub Salland took into service this season. The site in in Dutch, but here are some key features: -6 drums -diesel motor driving an hydrolic pump -drums driven by an hydrolic motor -automatic adjustment of speed and force (launch is practicly automatic, but manual override is possible). -dynema cable (lighter and stronger than steel) This is what I considder 'state of the art'... André WOW! State of the art indeed! I'd sure like to get more details on this winch in English. Bill Daniels
