Towing is the
process of pulling or drawing behind a chain, line, bar or some other form of
couplings. Towing is most visible performed by road vehicles, but anything from
waterborne vessels to tractors to people can tow cargo. Troop carrying and
cargo carrying gliders were towed behind powered aircraft during WW2 and
remains a popular means for modern for leisure gliders to take off. In the
maritime industry in particular, towing is a refined science.
