New Tug
Posted: 07 Feb 2020, 09:36
I wondered if anyone was interested in my "new tug" , probably the earlist scale tug .
Its my two thirds scale 1913 Ponnier racer recently fitted with a tow release and used to tow up my friend Piers Palfryman,s ASW28 glider
For those interested its 16 feet span , weighs 132 lbs and is powered by a French JPX 425cc two stroke flat twin.
It has scale wing warping which is "interesting" to fly , now in its 6th year.
