BlueSky, the really quiet tug

I noticed right away when Steve pulled out the Bailey-Moyes Dragonfly last Sunday that this was an especially quiet tug. I have previously written about the quiet tugs at Cloud 9 (http://ozreport.com/7.114#2), but those have the high power four stroke engines. This tug has the two stroke Rotax 582.
Legal tug/tow pilots and the FAA

I remember so well Sue Gardner saying that the FAA did not in any way wish to negatively impact the hang gliding community, businesses and growth of the sport with their Sport Pilot regulations. That was long before it came out that tug pilots would have to have their Private Pilot's License. Talk about impact.
