My fellow Americans,
I have an RV6 that I need to be able to push and pull around with a pull bar. I would like to know what is available and if the tail wheel spring bar is sturdy enough to move the plane around. My thinking is to design an aluminum clam shell device that clamps around the spring bar that has two "Frankenstien" posts on each side to slide a pull bar over. It would mount just ahead of the two bolts holding the swivel assembly. What do you all think? I have a friend with a CNC machine willing to cut billit for me. Also does W&B come into effect being so far back?
