Re: [Aus-soaring] Glider Tugs
I agree with mike, a texas taildrager with 180hp is a ripper. they do have to be beefed up in the rear for towing though, not a big deal with the testing that has been done. Now lets see one with a small turboprop MR Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2008 19:56:50 +1000 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Glider Tugs At 07:31 PM 23/01/2008, you wrote: I don't know - before my time here. But I heard it wasn't very nice to fly. I am looking at putting a syndicate together for a back up tug, for when the main one has a 100 hourly, or needs a bit of TLC which requires it to stop flying for a day or so. I thought a two seater which is fun to fly, and could be used for taildragger endorsements and aerobatics as well as for towing and towing training, and cheaper to run than a Pawnee would be nice. A cessna 150 with a 180 hp engine does not pass the fun to fly test. From the comments here, a 160 hp citabria would be too gutless I think. A 180 hp one might do the trick. Other countries do seem to use 180 hp tugs. OK so now we get the rest of the requirements. The only thing wrong with Cessna 150's is lack of power. The aircraft is actually light on the controls and well co-ordinated and last time I flew one I found it delightful - mind you I had been spending some time in the Piper Tomahawk which in retrospect is an appalling flying machine (note I didn't say aircraft) which was probably designed by the team from Sirius Cybernetics. The 180 HP engine fixes the problems of the 150. Anything with that much power has to be fun to fly. I once flew a C150 with 150HP and was most impressed. So it won't do aerobatics or tailwheel endorsements although you might look in to the Texas Taildragger (C150 tailwheel conversion) and see if it can have 180HP. The C150 also doesn't have fabric covering.

[Aus-soaring] Base stations
G'day All, I'm just watching 'The Sunship Game' at the moment, thought I'd write off a lighter e-mail to help pass the time. Just wondering what your base station is called, and or, what's the best one you've heard of? My favourite so far is Manders, 'Room Service'; and The Woolley's base station is 'Johnny Walker'. The reasoning, Grandad's first glider ended in the rego Whiskey - it was his favourite drink at the time! Regards, WPP _ Your Future Starts Here. Dream it? Then be it!
