RE: Learning to use a hi-start
Time to bring this one back to help the new glider pilots who are just now learning to fly using a hi-start.
Even though I own a winch and retriver I still pull out the hi-start to go flying at times. Works just as good as the first time. And it seems to be a more graceful launch than the winch or an electric glider.
Hi-starts, they are great!
