Re: [aus-soaring] "Experimental" Tug ?

[John Orton]

Hi Mark, You just asked questions outside my knowledge base. I am not from the Kingaroy area. I am just interested on our clubs behalf as to the autotug status. I think that it depends on the certification. If it gets certified for private use  ( experimental or not ) and has the appropriate characteristics then yes it could be used as a tug.   I have not be told of any restrictions to what it can tow. Maybe someone from Kingaroy could respond.   Regards   [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Fisher To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2001 8:37 AM Subject: Re: [aus-soaring] "Experimental" Tug ? John, Does this mean that any home built aircraft capable of performing the function of tug, can be legally used for all club operations? I thought the Auto-tug only had approval to tow single seaters ? Is this the case. ? Cheers Mark
