Hi Fred,

     Well, I glad I could help. I've found indoor
towline to be a lot of fun. This weekend the Bong
Eagles held an indoor contest and one of the events
was indoor towline. 4 people flew in the event, no
one had to run, and I think everyone had a great time.
 With some old limited penny plane wings, you can
build one pretty quickly. I glad you tried it and had
some success. 1:55 won't be that easy of time to
beat! Did you circle tow or straight tow?
