MooneyMitch Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Help, suggestions, thoughts please. A friend with a Cessna 170 needs a method to push her airplane out of her hangar. Getting the plane over the door rails is a bit of a struggle. Anyone know of some inexpensive type of drill motor set up to a tow bar mechanism, or? Thank you in advance.

BDPetersen Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Probably devising something to pull from the main gear would be a little safer than pushing from the tail wheel. I would worry that that resistance of jumping the door tracks might cause the typical “tail dragger dragger” to slip off the tail wheel. Perhaps there is a solution for that now. We used a trough to guide the tail wheel and ropes to pull the mains. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
