MyNameIsNobody Posted April 23, 2018 Report Posted April 23, 2018 Selling my bike because I can no longer lift it onto center stand. When I can no longer push in and pull out time to hang up the spurs.
thinwing Posted April 23, 2018 Report Posted April 23, 2018 16 hours ago, gsxrpilot said: I've used a four wheeler, a lawn tractor, and a pickup truck to tow my plane around. I found the longer the tow bar, the easier it is to steer the plane. Then two years ago helping JD & Laura move into Russel's old hangar, we came across one of these tugs. It wouldn't start and the tire was split open and falling off the wheel. After a bit of work, it's great running little tug and by far the easiest I've ever used to move the Mooney and steer it forwards or backwards. This is what I also did..rebuilt/reengined an old model 35 into latest model EZ Tow 40 with elec start...no more riding lawn tractors
Piloto Posted April 23, 2018 Report Posted April 23, 2018 On my Robotow I installed wheels for easy drag to the plane for when getting in and out of the hangar. For longer distances I just taxi the plane. I can easily store the Robotow in my crowded hangar. José 1
