Default Stall spin during aero tow? Std cirrus

As an active glider pilot and retired tow pilot, it always disappointed
me as the tuggie when the glider pilot would tell me he would get off at
3,000' AGL.Â* Then we'd proceed tow through super lift only to have him
release in sink at 3,000' AGL and practically beat me back to the
ground.Â* Just one of my pet peeves because the tuggie usually gets the
blame for the poor judgement of the glider pilot.Â* Get off in lift, not
at some predetermined altitude!
