Example of what is written below:  https://www.mediafire.com/file/fs93xvqq319r5hp/TugGliderTaxi.zip/file

In latest BAT, consider following:

* You can fly in any flyable glider in a Tug train (currently G-11 & Me-321)
* You can only fly as Tug if you are towing an AI-only glider (Horsa, Hamilcar, DFS-230, banner)
* If you fly a Tug with a flyable glider (G-11, Me-321), the glider will NOT attach to you

AI considerations:
* You can have a glider attach with a Tug in mid flight to avoid problems with takeoff, just use a proper delay (1-5 minutes) in the glider
* For proper takeoff, only one Tug/Glider in default takeoff in runway
* You can have the Tug or tugs spawn and Taxi to takeoff, as long as the glider spawns with a delay... something like 4-5 minutes.

This mission shows you flying in an He-111Z towing a DFS-230 (works because it is AI only).  It also has a Li-2 that taxis and takes off then G-11 glider spaws after it takes off.


=======================================

TUGs
=========
* Set speeds lower, less than 400kmh, around 250kmh

Gliders
=========
* Use one flying waypoint, and set the tug airplane as target in Waypoint options... that is it.  Set Time delay if needed for your scenario.
