The apparatus includes an axle extending across the landing skids having a pair of spaced eyelets attached to the axle in such a position that one of the landing skids can easily slide through each eyelet. The apparatus includes a pair of wheels rotatably attached to the axle to allow for easy ground movement along with an attachment for securing the axle to the airframe.
