Breese AT Tugs Non-Powered Fliers

By ANN Correspondent John Ballantyne

Collaboration of two industry giants in the ultralight industry has brought to reality a new ultralight aero-towing tug named the Breese AT (Could that be for Aero-tow or Air tug?).

M-Squared Aircraft, Inc. principal Paul Mather, and long-time industry notable John Dunham, have joined forces to adapt the popular M-Squared Breese as a tug for hang gliders and ultralight sailplanes. This is a brand new application/adaptation for a well-known design.

The Breese AT is lifted by a single surface airfoil which provides the high lift and slow speed required for towing hang gliders. The Breese AT is a well-damped, stable towing platform with the 24' 10" length and 32' 9" span. The wing is covered with TAFFITA (Mylar reinforced Kevlar) leading edge fabric for durability and performance. The powerplant of choice is a 700cc ROTAX two-cycle 680. The aero tug is a single seater only.

The Breese AT is ready to go to work at your aerotow flight park right now. It is a turnkey, ready to fly, aircraft for less than $25,000 with a BRS ballistic parachute and standard instrumentation.
