glider towing
I speak as a tow pilot (over 1500 launches) Glider pilot (600 hours) and senior instructor plus 2500 hours power.
Gliding experience is essential for a good tug pilot.
Many clubs require 200 hours experience and at least 10 hours tail wheel plus tail wheel endorsement,
GFA require at least 40 of the aeronautical hours to be in VH registered aircraft.
It is a demanding and often potentially hazardous operation which is easy to do badly but satisfying to do well. It requires a high degree of airmanship, good care of engines (e.g. no shock cooling) and is often done in the heat of summer.
See the GFA aero tow manual for details. - pm me if you want a copy.
