Look son, I'm not being piccy but I'm sure you were towing a glider when you left

643GS Kirton in Lindsey mid 60's. Foggy fog fog, so foggy it was really foggy. (Just makinga point so you grasp how foggy it was) Not forecast just dropped out of the sky like a stone leaving six assorted Mk111's and T21's littering the launch point. After a miserable hour with no sign of it lifting and the day drawing to an end CFI orders eveything to be towed in. Easier said then done. One Landy vanished into the gloom with a Mk111 dangling on the rope Half and hour later Landy emerges from the gloom near the hangers. (glider wot glider) It took some finding.
