Pawnee as a glider tug

One of the towing guys at my gliding club said as he had his checkride on our Pawnee:
"It's just like flying a space shuttle. Makes a noise like hell and goes straight to heaven!"

To get a towing rate here in Norway you've got to fly 10 solo starts in the glider behind. To be checked out on our Pawnee you only need a tailwheel rate.
