It rained until about 3pm today so there was no flying at Leszno today. However today was notable for the arrival of Nigel McPhee and Barbara, my wife & crew.

We also have some interesting towplanes here. I will have to leave it to the tuggies in NZ to identify them, suffice to say that some are a lot better than others.

Made by PZL and Steve calls it a small truck. Towing at over 65 knots reduces climb rate to a couple of knots. The short straw on the grid.
They tell us we will have 18 tugs tomorrow and the glider fleet has dropped to 130-something so the launch should be fast.
