Hi All,

Sounds like you are having some fun.

Obviously I am sure you are aware we do loads of winch launching
here in the UK.

I am equally sure you are aware, but there is some excellent advice
on safe winch launching on the BGA website as there have been a
few accidents over the years.

By the way love your videos Bruno.

Cheers

Graham

I trained in Australia (Bond Springs) and, with about a mile of cable,
we typically got about 2,500' AGL.
