DBCOOPER 1 #1 February 9, 2008 a wing suiter behind a 182 that has a glider tow hook? Kind of bored here at work and the thought just crossed my mind.The logistics of the exit are pretty difficult,but if you could figure that out I bet it would be a fun ride.Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

diablopilot 2 #2 February 9, 2008 Yes. While not a wing suit pilot, I have seen someone on a tow rope behind a 182.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But here's an attempt behind a B-25: http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=1024 And here's Joe Jennings trying it with a 206 and a camera suit: http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=974 Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A 182 back at my old DZ in IN once towed a jumpmaster using a static line half-hitched around his ankle.
