<p>Hi Lucas, maybe Zenith can give you some insight regarding strengthening of the tail cone or rear fuselage if required. For the actual hook mechanism, a bet any skilled machinist could help design and fabricate a hook. Sound fun! Good Luck!</p>

<p>Dear Gary, thank you for your comments, it is absolutely true what you say. So now I will concentrate in looking for the tail system. But still don't know which device to use.</p>

<p>I would not tow a glider from the main landing gear. While towing, if the glider gets above you, the tow cable will impinge on the elevator and stabilizer and probably lead to a loss of control of your aircraft.</p>
