Special uses 

Winching use is not a problem for the Foxy. Winching equipment has to be used by experienced pilots. Inflate the glider 
in the same way than for a normal flight. At the start of the winch, don’t forget to work on a short control travel if you 
need to correct your trajectory. The action on the brakes has to be gentle as long as the glider is near its stall point.
