Glider Towing Supplement 10.2 - 10
Rev. 01 – 07-01-2008
6 Emergency
Procedures
6.1 Engine
Failure
If an engine failure occurs during glider towing, the glider pilot must be informed immediately by radio to
disengage the tow rope. Alternatively, the rope can be released at the towing aircraft. For further
information, please refer to Section 6 "Emergency Procedures" included in the REMOS GX Pilot
Operating Handbook.
6.2 Additional
Procedures
If an unallowable attitude of the glider is determined which could cause an uncontrolled flight situation, the
tow rope has to be disengaged immediately. If the glider is located outside an angle of 60° behind the
towing aircraft (Angle between tow rope and longitudinal axis of the towing aircraft > 30°), the rope has to
be disengaged immediately!
6.3
Failure of the Release Clutch
If a failure on the release mechanism is determined, the final approach has to be carried out maintaining
a high rate of descent. At touch down, the aircraft along with the rope should touch the ground at the
same time.
