Other articles mention glider, and since it mentions an airport takeoff it is more likely a glider. I am afraid this is going to be a double digit year for fatalities in the US. Sigh! Ramy

Cadillac commercial accident?
William Lynn Weller in his DG 1000
RIP My condolences to his family and all that knew him. I am very anxious to find out who was in charge of this auto tow operation and how much experience they had. I sure hope the Cadillac add people weren't running the show there. Cle Elum is only a 2500ft strip. What kind of release, if any, were they using on the Caddy. What kind of rope were they using and what were they using on the glider end. This add agency contacted me to do the add and I told them that ground launching was very serious and that they needed to be sure they used people that knew what they were doing and had a lot of auto towing experience. I sure hope they did. Boggs
