Group:

I am considering acquiring a Schweizer SGS 1-35. I found one but it does not have a CG hook. If I understand correctly, the CG hook was an option. Knowing this, is it possible to add a CG hook to a 1-35? Is the mounting bracket standard in all 1-35's?

Thank you.

I did not know there was a CG Hook option on the 1-35. I have an SGS 1-35C and the Manual explicitly states that winch launch is not authorized. I take this because the elevator is small and does not have much nose up deflection and the Schweizer hook is so far forward.

Guys - Thank you for your input. I am still learning about the 1-35.

I believe you all are correct that there was never a CG tow hook for the 1-35. What confused me is that I was looking through the WingsAndWheels listings. In the listings there is a list of features that are included or not included in the postings. Both tow hooks were listed. I interpreted this as meaning that the CG hook was available as a factory option, but this particular bird did not have it. However, I was wrong. The overall listing of features is a generic list for any glider.

Thank you.
