ABSTRACT:
A wheeled vehicle for transporting aircraft along the ground includes an engagement and hoisting unit supported by a vehicle chassis. The unit is brought into a position close to, but not touching, the nose wheels of the aircraft, both in front of and behind the contact points between the nose wheels and the ground. The unit is lifted by a cylinder acting between it and the chassis and makes contact with the treads of the nose wheels on both sides of the contact points, raising the nose wheels off the ground.
