Advice #1: Ramp up very very slowly. The tricky bit is when you start feeling in the groove. The temptation will be to ramp up more quickly. Don't do it! That way lies injury.

Seeing as it was only 10 meters, the tow truck was still attached. All it had to do was reverse.

HAHA! Well put!

Through no fault of the pilots, it was sadly written off a few months after I flew it. The retraction mechanism on the 172RGs has always been a weak spot, even after several ADs.

Any time.

Monkey 47?
