The tow vehicle is an ultralight aircraft designed to fly at the very slow speeds needed to safely tow a hangglider. The towline is attached at one end to a release on the ultralight and on the other end to the hangglider. The ultralight flys up to altitude with the hang glider flying under tow behind, then the hangglider releases.
