The BAE, VTOL = pitch.
Activation 1 to turn on/off roll.
Activation 2 to release Glider. Action 3 to release rope from BAE.
Glider: normal pitch and roll.

Instructions:

1. Activate 1 and then 90 to 100% power and VTOL all the way down.
2. When the BAE becomes airborne, slowly raise VTOL to achieve a even ascent.
3. At approx. 5000 ft (or higher) activation 2 then 3.
4. Camera to the BAE and place in a holding pattern, then Activation 1 to turn off roll on the BAE.
5. Switch to the Glider and glide to a safe landing at the airport (careful not to hit the breaks).
5. Back to BAE, Activation 1 back on, and take her also down to the airport.

Enjoy.

    Hey I have just started building an AVRO Vulcan of 617 squadron and I've got the engines done, but I've been through about 5 fuselages and just can't get it right with fuselage blocks and don't know how I can get it actually round...

    I'm laughing right now, what are the chances, I disconnect the top, start gliding, and ten seconds later, and the BAE hit my glider

    This rope is better than old one. I have try to build 'kite' with your rope.

    It's a real challenge to try and get both running together, but really fun.
