This is a random exercise/test done to glider flying instructors: the rope is released shortly after takeoff and the pilot has to react quickly and well in order to get the plane back to the landing strip. It's NOT an accident, nor is the pilot hot dogging. I am looking for comments from other pilots and instructors.
