Magic!
I'd heard of a snatch launch but never seen one.

Maybe we should reintroduce this form of launching, It would sure cut down
the tug turnaround time !!
Mind you we would probably have to strengthen the tug airframe or we would
end up with stretch version Pawnee's as well J

Hi Folk,
As a very long shot, I am interested in talking to anyone that may be
thinking about acquiring a competitive Standard class glider in Europe or US
in late 2012 and would be interested in defraying thier shipping costs by
accepting a long trip via Argentina and a bit of competition flying
Here you go guys, from page 94 onwards, just click on the link.

We plan to use a Cessna 182P for towing. Does anyone out there have a Cessna
182P already towing and if so, could they help us with info on approvals,
P-charts and flight manual supplements?
If we can obtain figures already issued by CASA or an engineering firm it
will save us time and money.
Hi Pam,
You can install a hook via two processes:
1. Purchase a Hook installation with a Supplemental Type Certificate
(STC) from a vendor(Tost, Schweitzer) - comes with everything you need and
is a log book entry if installed as per the vendors instructions. STC
issuing authority
Tim Laider's 182 had a hook and he towed with it. I think it was done on an STC.
Tims details can be found here

Hi Pam
Your LAME, if going with the DIY install(Approved of course), would refer to
this document for Basic under pinning knowledge to get things started -
pretty much accepted as the basis to all GA aircraft maintenance as a whole
document.

Pam,
my understanding is that the Schwiezer type hook is not acceptable as it does
not have the aligning function that is found in the tost hook design. The outer
ring keeps the load at right angles to hook. the old cessna/schweizer hook was
mounted on an AN bolt and could move and not
Pam,
Didn't DDSC used to operate a C182?

Yep, different model. I'm hoping to strike lucky and get performance figures
for the 182P.
I haven't been able to get much info from club members about that Cessna.
I'm also learning a lot about the paperwork process.
Thanks to those who have so far responded, I'm getting some really
The Schweitzer couldn't have been that bad - or they would have attracted AD
action to prevent their use
Interestingly, to address some of your stated areas of acceptability this
company manufactures a Like tow hook with improvements (unable to validate
tests/methodology)
