With limited trim capabilities, it takes quite a bit of forward stick pressure in level tow in a 2-33. Low tow, even more pressure. What would happen if a 2-33 pilot let go of the stick in low tow? Jim I'd guess it would be exactly the same result as if he let go the stick in any other glider when there's significant load on the stick. Probably impressive but hardly surprising. Unlike letting go the stick in a in-trim Std Cirrus or Mini-Nimbus on final glide. Impressive AND surprising! C'mon Jim. Why would a pilot in any glider let go the stick at any time it's under load - whether on tow or for any other reason? Some of this stuff about low tow gets ridiculous - and just confirms my feelings about the basis for the opposition. GC |
