The best way to make change is to get involved, and join the Tow Committee at its meetings. That's what people who really care do to make change. Such is the nature of the great opportunities we have to make a difference in the US (although it means having to spend time, money, and effort, compared to the ease of just sitting in front of a computer.)
Fuck the Towing Committee. The Towing Committee exists to make sure that NOTHING *EVER* changes for the better and push people who actually give a rat's ass about anything over the edge.

The only way to ever have a snowball's chance in hell of undermining you motherfuckers and making positive changes...

Tad's procedures for aerotowing should become part of any training manual.
Tad must have put hour upon hour of gathering together his written procedure.
...is to work one's ass off "JUST" sitting in front of a computer shredding the quacks and putting out solid information to counter the crap they write.

I don't have much hope for much happening as a result of stuff published in English but maybe if it's done in French things will happen and maybe start trickling in over here in another three or four decades.

Thanks much for putting this together. I've given it a couple of skims and struggled through bits of the language here and there. If you ever get really bored maybe you could do an English version and pull a few eyes off of Towing Aloft and Hang Gliding magazine.
