Versatile Lindy’s Aircraft Tugs maneuver tail dragger aircraft with the same precision and ease that they move tricycle landing gear aircraft. With Lindy’s aircraft tugs and aircraft tractors, maneuvering tail dragger aircraft in and out of crowded hangers or around busy FBO facilities is a one-person job. The same aircraft tug can be used to manipulate aircraft with different landing gear configurations, minimizing the amount of equipment you need to run an efficient operation.
Instead of sliding Lindy’s aircraft tug’s easy-on roller cradle under the forward nose wheel as you would for a tricycle landing gear plane, with tail dragger aircraft the aircraft tug cradle slides under the tail wheel. Click here to watch a video of our aircraft tug being used to move a tail dragger airplane out of a hanger. As you can see in the video, Lindy’s unique aircraft tug cradle allows fifth-wheel turning capability. This permits our aircraft tug to pivot a full 180 degrees under the aircraft wheel without turning the wheel or steering mechanism of the aircraft. The lever handle and cable system designed into our aircraft tug allow the operator to safely lock, hold and release the aircraft safely during loading and unloading into the cradle and while transporting the aircraft, guaranteeing the safety of valuable aircraft.
Lindy’s ergonomically designed aircraft tugs are uniquely designed to be the only aircraft tugs you’ll ever need. The universal choice for FBOs, small air fields, pilot-owners and corporate fleets, Lindy’s aircraft tugs and tractors are designed for use with both tail dragger aircraft and tricycle land gear airplanes. Our 4K Aircraft Tractor is capable of moving aircraft both with and without pants without making any modifications to the aircraft tug.
