Being just an ignorant sloper, I have to ask: What are the typical line tensions seen in a winch line?
I ask because 250lbs or 290lbs just seems obscene, yet I hear of guys breaking lines at will. How can planes tolerate such forces?
How can the tow hooks stand it for that matter?!
Is anyone else as amazed by these numbers as I am? Wow, worlds different than the GL's we started with.
