From: Ben Wilson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ...let me pitch you my argument for...better attention paid to handlaunch by soaring in general. ================ Well, Ben, after hearing about how all you young bucks were having fun with these HL planes, I got me one of 'em and went to try 'er out. But I couldn't figger the dagnab thing out. First of all, there wasn't no towhook or nothin'. Then I noticed this little black popsicle stick jabbed through the end of one of the wings, and I thought maybe that was where I was spozed to hook on the winch line, but I couldn't get the ring to stay on. Daggondest thing I ever saw. And I got to thinking, even if I could, wouldn't the winch just yank 'er along sideways? So I give the whole thing up as a bad job and went to fly 'er on the slope, which she ain't too bad if the wind ain't a-blowin too strong. Maybe next time I see you, you can give me some pointers about what I'm doin' wrong.
