6.3
Failure of the release clutch
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!
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 the chapter "Emergency
Procedures" included in the REMOS G-3 /600 Pilot Operating Handbook.
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.
