Default Selecting landout airports

Understood.

However, years back my partner and I launched our LS-6a (no tip wheels)
unassisted, though using a stick for a wing stand. I was in the tug and
he was in the glider. We had to make a couple of attempts due cross
winds causing the wing to rise and the stick to drop. Circumstances of
the day did not allow a trailer retrieve so I flew out to get him. I
wouldn't do that routinely...
