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.

If any tug pilot decides to have a pee when I'm behind them on tow, they
will be in a world of hurt.

I'm relieved to hear that.

 

Unfortunately it sounds like if we are flying a tug we will just have to
hold on.

CASA clearly still has a major challenge to catch up with EASA rule makers.
Found blow on uras.gliderpilot.net posted by 'Big Wings'.
 
I was concerned that EASA was losing its way and creating regulations where
none are required because common sense would prevail. I now realise that I
had underestimated the rule makers. Their latest proposals for regulation
of aircraft used for non-commercial operations (NCO), in a document
entitled: Certification Specifications and Guidance Material related to
Generic Master Minimum Equipment List for other-than-complex motor-powered
aeroplanes, which addresses permitted defects in many light aircraft when
used for recreational purposes, include this stroke of genius: 

38-30-2 Pilot relief tube: May be missing or inoperative provided it is
not used. 

However, glider pilots will be reassured to know that sailplanes will be
exempt from this rule. We will be free to wet ourselves if our pee tubes
are missing or inoperative

Nah, poor old tuggies can't pee because they never drink enough.

Their pipe works get plugged up with kidney stones!

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
