Aircraft Tugs for Texas – Ease, Safety, and Efficiency
At Airtug, we implement rigorous quality-control measures with every aircraft tug we manufacture. We, also, offer industry-leading parts & warranties, and 30-day money-back guarantees. Our aircraft tugs are a walk-behind configuration, with some models rated for aircraft weighing up to 16,000 pounds. Our tugs serve FBOs and commercial and private planes. We supply compatible accessories and equipment, all designed to optimize the ease, safety, and efficiency of aircraft movement.
Wait till you see our NFE-4 Aircraft Tug – it is quiet and comes with two batteries and has an on-board Smart Battery charger. The engine is a 24-volt electric motor. This design is the BEST tug for Cirrus aircraft, and moves most nose-fairing aircraft and other castering or non-castering nose-wheel aircraft up to 4,000 lbs.
The NFE-4 tug allows for single-user operation, thanks to the ease of the lifting of the nose wheel. The procedure is as easy as 1-2-3. Manually attach the tow-bar to the aircraft, and winch the tow-bar/nose-wheel onto the raised platform. The rest is mere child’s play as the tug, seamlessly, takes over!
The seamless control of the NFE-4 is based on its unique thumb-throttle system that utilizes an electric transaxle w/differential. The return-to-brake feature prevents any unintentional movement of the craft upon release of the thumb throttle.
