Re: [Aus-soaring] Pee Tube
Ben - Never upset at Tug Pilot; They know where the thermals are and they have long memories J My usual problem is getting lunch - just when I have launched what I believe to be the last glider for a while and looking forward to a break another one appears on the grid.

Re: [Aus-soaring] Pee Tube
Nah, poor old tuggies can't pee because they never drink enough. Their pipe works get plugged up with kidney stones! http://www.casa.gov.au/wcmswr/_assets/main/avmed/journal_urinary_calculi .pdf As a tuggie, you are more likely to crap your pants when the glider on tow does something silly. Remember, be kind to tuggies, they have much fewer options From a lapsed tuggie ___ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
