PowerFlarm and transponders while towing?

Not to sound like a smartass, but have you considered leaving the PowerFlarm off until release? *Is the collision potential so great over your usual tow route/altitude that you don't feel safe without it? I've seen quite a few incidents in which the glider pilot picked up the collision threat before the tow pilot. This sounds like a pretty straightforward issue for flarm to solve -- writing software to know "this is the towplane, you're on tow, ignore it" doesn't sound like rocket science. John Cochrane |
