The NFE is the perfect electric tug solution to move nearly any plane under 4,000/6,000 lbs. Whether your aircraft has wheel fairings, retractable gear, or a tailwheel—or you have a fleet with a combination of all three— the NFE can get the job done.
The plane’s wheel is hoisted onto a sturdy, elevated platform powered by a hydraulic jack, allowing for wide turns without dragging the wheel across the ground and easy navigation over various terrains.
With our intuitive thumb throttle, you can smoothly and effortlessly control the tug at a variable speed that suits your comfort. The two 12v batteries powered by an onboard Smart Charger and electric transaxle work in tandem to do all the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to break a sweat. The 13” drive tires powered by a differential and a free-wheeling caster under the handle make tough turns an afterthought.
Each NFE comes with one NFE Attachment (fairings), one NFE Adapter Plate (non-fairing/retractable), or one tailwheel chock to help connect to your plane. These accessories can be switched out and purchased separately as needed.
Fairings: We have several NFE Attachments premade for a variety of makes, including Cirrus, Cessna, Piper, and more, to fit snuggly and safely onto your plane without causing any damage or metal-to-metal contact. The Attachment helps connect the winch on our tug to your aircraft, allowing it to be lifted onto the platform.
Non-fairing/retractable: We have a universal NFE Adapter Plate that will act as a chock to secure your nosewheel on the platform. We will provide a strap that wraps around the back of the nosewheel and connects to our winch, allowing the plane to roll onto the platform and into the Adapter Plate.
Tailwheel: Our Tailwheel Chock works in the same fashion as our NFE Adapter Plate but is smaller and narrower to accommodate most tailwheels.
The NFE is ideal for all planes listed below under 4,000/6,000lbs and more! If your aircraft is not listed, please contact us.
