Last time I asked this question I was tugging my project onto a tow truck for transit to the hanger. Now with winter ice out in front of the hanger I am unable to single handedly push the 9A back into the hanger. Uphill grade doesn't help the problem. A few locals suggested studded boots.
I read earlier tonight that the aft tie down ring is not the spot to tug on. Slings around main gear legs may be ok this year as they aren't streamlined yet but given they slope in the direction I am pulling, would that be a problem?
My hangers slab floor sits about 3 inches above the grade of the ramp. I have four foot long ramps to get in and out of the hanger with.
Any suggestions for winching or a ramp that makes the grade? Its only winter for half the year here, so its not always a problem.
