Here is a tandem glider being towed up with the dragonfly ultralight, someone is getting a lesson on how to fly hanggliders.

Here is that same glider landing, but this was likely the first test flight before doing lessons.

This is me being towed up to the top of Dog Mtn, the plan was to be towed straight at the Dog Mtn launch with Mt Rainier in the background and be able to see people and gliders on launch, after making this pass the ultralight tow rope went slack and got under my control bar and it flipped me upside down when it went tight, I released just in time.

My tow up, getting used to taking photos under tow, I had never took photos under tow before.

Launch is at the top of that hill.

We made a right turn away from the hill to get some altitude.

We are lined up!

After I was flipped over they towed me up again using a different release system but there was too much rope in the way for a good photo.
