SSB Towing Page

When you become a member of the SSB you will receive notification by email of the towplane schedule. Typically in the summer months we have two tow planes working during the best soaring period of the day.

TOW PILOTS - To get on this schedule contact Kenn Arnett. Please schedule with Kenn as far in advance as you can manage so all SSB flyers can be aware of the tow schedule. As is tradition, weekends and selected weekdays will have scheduled tow pilots. If you would like to sign up for one of these slots contact Kenn. If you can tow during the week consider signing for a time slot each week or putting a note in your tow pilot status box below.

GLIDER PILOTS - As is tradition, weekends and selected weekdays will have scheduled tow pilots. If an SSB tow pilot is not scheduled when you would like a tow please call individual tow pilots on the tow pilot status list. Please try and schedule your tows as far in advance as possible. Note that SSB tow pilots are not employees of the club and can only tow you when they have the time and inclination. Glider pilots who schedule and then cancel MUST contact the tow pilot. If not doing multiple tows it is always a good idea to attempt to round up several glider pilots who want a tow on a particular day before contacting prospective tow pilots. If the tow pilot cancels at short notice they will pass a message to the SSB Glider Reservation line so check this is there is a problem.

TOWPLANE MANAGERS - If your towplane is going to be down for maintenance or repair please contact Kenn Arnett with the details so this page can be updated.

Pawnee N8808L: The clubs new Pawnee has proven to be one of the most successful purchases made by the club to date. The new tug is beautiful and has been towing since its delivery. The new four bladed prop is super quite. Congratulations SSB members on this new addition to the SSB stable. A special thank you to Mike Exner who was largely responsible for researching and securing this excellent addition to the clubs fleet.

Super Cub 85F: This work horse of the SSB fleet is in beautiful condition and ready to go.
