ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is disclosed for moving an aircraft across a deck surface from a landing position to a stowed position. The apparatus comprises a pair of control beams (26, 28). The control beams are propelled along longitudinal (6, 8) and transverse rails (22, 24) to engage and then position a landed aircraft ready for the aircraft to be guided securely to its hangar by a self-propelled shuttle unit (58). When not in use, the control beams may be stored in the hangar.
