Launching a training glider by rope, 1937

Under the fabric wing of an open training glider a pilot sits strapped into his seat on the bare frame; a bare-armed young man bends to the rope hooked to the nose, and another stands by the wingtip. Seen from the glider, the launch crew in the distance takes up the slack, and on the skyline a row of men runs forward hauling on the rubber rope that will catapult the glider off the slope.
