My experience is 2 real ones in 36 years and 2000+ aerotows.

A pilot (a Professor) was killed on the weekend at Blue Ridge Soaring

The FAA has stated that the tow rope broke and he landed in trees nearby.
Having had very few aerotows I was wondering just how common rope

I have heard about 'aerotow upsets' but never a simple rope break.
