I got my private pilot's license in an aero-towed L-13.
(Added the power rating later).
You couldn't pay me enough to participate in that stunt.:S

I bet Warren Buffet could.;)


Ever messed up a turn when being towed and broken a tow line?
I have.:S
That means half the rope comes flying back at you just looking for a control surface to wedge in.

Ever had the release not release when you pulled it and climbed, and found yourself still attached to the tow plane, but he is no where in sight?
I have.:S

There is just too much shit that can go wrong when there is just one plane attached to you, let alone nine.

It looked to me like they were struggling to climb at all. They not only flew over residence, they did it very low. Try explaining that to the FAA??

"Gee sir, I really thought we could clear those power lines. Sorry about all the dead kids on the playground." Is this going to affect my license??B|B|
