Recollections: As part of my training to become a tow pilot at the gorgeous Bergeth Field, near Enumclaw, WA (home of the Puget Sound Soaring Association or PSSA) I flew in the front seat of a PW-6.  I was already a CFIG so the flight wasn’t difficult and the PW-6 showed its excellent L/D by keeping us up for almost an hour, despite fairly weak lift.
