TOW PLANE Accident

you need an extended release cable or a piece of line on it so you can hook it over your hand. Fair comment. My Libelle has a fairly long release cable so my hand is resting on my leg with fingers loosely round the knob. Cable is slack and hand supported by leg. Juniors are also good: arm supported on the cockpit rail with fingers on top of, but not round, the T-bar release. Needs little more than closing fingers to pull the release. -- Martin | martin at Gregorie | gregorie dot org
