We introduce a 3-parameter family of vector fields on the 3-torus as a linear combination of unit eigenfields of the curl operator for the eigenvalue 2. For this family reminiscent of the classical ABC flow, we study the existence of stationary points, we give numerical evidence for the existence of chaotic regions, and we present an integrable case. Our main result is that the non-vanishing members of the family are associated with tight contact structures.
