I was checking out Airliners.net the other day, and I stumbled across this picture.
Despite the impressive angle, notice the two throttle-like push-pull levers on the panel. What are they? I know the aircraft is a Robin DR-400-180R, and it is commonly used for glider towing. Looking at other pictures, I noticed the mixture control is below the pilot's right knee, but I didn't see a throttle control next to it.
