Gentlemen, I seem to remember seeing on this group sometime with in t
Ron,
some years ago we found the BOM could do the same thing called a pseudo temp
trace. Used it at the Bathurst state comps.
Give me a call if you need the BOM contact.

Ian,
There is an archive of aus-soaring somewhere in cyberspace. Jason Armistead
knows where.

I'm not sure that this is correct.

Dear All
It is interesting to hear stories about hiring a vehicle for a weekend of
towing. It makes a lot of sense from the point of view that you have an
operational and maintained vehicle ready to go.
Thanks Mike. regards JR

AFAIK,
In classic Bungy Launching, there is no car. The ends of the bungy cord
are pulled forward of the glider by teams of helpers, or a horse
(funny/sad apocryphal story about horse bungy...) when the bungy was
stretched sufficiently, the glider was released, and used the stored
energy in th

They still bungy launch at the Long Mynd. Last time I looked they had
photos on their web site. No horse or car, just around 20 bodies and a
big rubber band :)
The Essex Gliding club used to reverse pulley launch from North Weald
until the mid 80's. They may have some information of use

Members of the ASC had a bungy cord in the 1970's that they intended
to use launching gliders from local ridges. the closest we got was to
launch a Libelle a few times on low hops along the Gawler Airfield.

Hi,
Bungy lunching has been revived after many years of disuse in Poland at the
site of Bezmiechowa. In addition to bungy lunching they use a method called
"gravitational launch" - just pushing the glider down the slope.
You can find two short movies showing both method at this site:
