There was another first-time experience on my way back. The powerful tow plane, a Cessna 182, took me up to 14,000 ft and released me half way to Logan. I glided 80 miles back to the airport by myself. It was the first time I used oxygen on tow.

Towing back to Logan
The towplane from Logan came to pick me up at 5:30pm. While waiting, a few thunderstorm cells hit Big Piney airport, but they airport people were very kind and let me use their hanger to shelter my glider. Joe, a CFI who happened to be teaching there, helped me move my glider, and also ran my wing when I took off. Thanks Joe!
