Zone C - British Columbia Interior / Yukon
Vernon Aero-Tow
Event Description
Come and enjoy aero-towing beautiful large scale gliders in BC's Okanagan valley at a time when thermals are plentiful. Slope lift may also be available depending on wind direction thanks to the 300 ft slope just off the southeast end of the grass runway. Launch off the grass and land on large smooth area with no fences or obstructions to snag tow lines or cause damage during landings. Bring your sailplane with an aero-tow release installedElectric sailplanes can be flown but aerotowing activity takes precedence and will limit "electrics" flying time
