Pulley system favours long flat runways where car can travel toward 
the glider at the higher ground speeds sailplane needs vs hang 
glider.

Where runway surface/length is not suited to autotow, winch can give

Mobile self laying winch can be self contained single person 
operation, suited to small gliding operation.
