Es scheint nur noch eine Frage der Zeit (und der Zulassung des Schleppflugzeugs), bis auch die Gleitschirme im UL-Schlepp starten...hier die Meldung aus dem Oz Report Vol7/No.294 von Davis Straub:
"Aerotowing paragliders
Paragliding history was made at Quest Air 10:37am, Monday November 17th, 2003. Bobby Bailey - Tug Pilot, Dave Prentice - Paraglider Pilot. Dave aerotowed up an Ozone Vulcan Paraglider behind the Bailey Moyes Dragonfly (bi-plane)
Rhett Radford, Campbell Bowen and Russell Brown assisted as ground crew and provided important insights that made for the final three successful tows. About five earlier short attempts were made before three successful high tows occurred. Much was learned. The stunt and expert factor is starting to disappear.
The chances of a Florida Paraglider tow competition just increased."
