Not gonna lie but I've been concerned about a tug snapping the NLG from time to time. Anyone else notice how jerky some of those gas tugs can be?


Lektro FTW.

It is a gas to fly, beats a nosedragger any day. Unusual with that TSA, just curious if the nose gear was pinned?

Maybe the tug operator figured he disconnected when, in fact, he was still hooked up.

Saw pics from an AA -80 that had that happen.
