Does everything we need it to do
“After we acquired our own hangar, we were looking for ground handling equipment, and I was told to look at AeroTow. I wanted something reasonably priced that worked well, so that’s why I got the T2. I’ve used several different brands of ground handling setups like the T2, and this one does everything we need it to do.
I don’t have any complaints about this at all really, but at one point we did have an issue where it wouldn’t move very fast. I called up the salesperson, and she had me tell customer service what was going on, and they called me right back and offered to send out a new part. After we put it in, it solved our problem. The customer service and the support on that was excellent. I do wish this model had a setup so we didn’t have to use the winch on it.
I definitely recommend the T2 over any of the higher-priced ones because it will do everything that those ones can. I was glad that guy told me about it cause this was the way to go.” – Rodney Clark, Piper Jetprop & Cessna 182 owner

A great machine
“We finally had a chance to fly and use the T1 to move the RV-8 in and out of the hangar. It worked great and enabled this old guy to easily position the airplane where it needed to be. It’s a great machine. Thank you and the team for a great job.” – Geoff Kimbrough, Van’s RV-8 owner

David and Goliath
“I own an AeroTowT1. My friend, also a Husky pilot, owns a Best Tug. I borrowed his just to compare the two, thinking I might want to upgrade. My little yellow tug so outclasses his Best Tug. On wet pavement, the Best Tug’s wheels slip and slide no matter how much down pressure I added, while my AeroTow, with just a bit of down pressure and the larger wheels, pulls my fully fueled Husky up and in effortlessly. Think David and Goliath. Great company.” – Mark Zander, Aviat Husky owner

Easy to use and gets the job done!
“It turned a two-person push into the hangar into a one-person job, providing extra independence to take advantage of blue sky days!” – Rob Zuzula, Cessna 182 Skylane owner

Envy of the hangar crowd
“Love the unit! It’s sturdy/strong and easy to take care of. It’s easy to attach to my taildragger (the tow bar fork has a nice crank which really allows a good grip on the tail wheel without much effort in tightening.) It’s easy to steer into the hangar. Very quiet and has high-quality components also. I am the envy of the hangar crowd.” – Michael Barri, Murphy Rebel owner

Works well
“The AeroTow T1 works well and changeovers from SR22 to 182 are quick and easy. Tech support was quick to answer any questions. 5 out of 5 stars.” – Gary M., Cirrus SR22 & Cessna 182 owner

The right tool for the job
“The AeroTow is exactly what I needed to push my Cessna Cardinal into my hangar. With the 2-degree slope and no struts to push on, getting the fully-fueled plane up the hill with a tow bar was too much for my back to handle. The AeroTow T1 is exactly the right tool for the job.” – Derek Thompson, Cessna Cardinal owner

Simple and rock steady
“I use mine to tow my hangared SR22 Cirrus and can’t imagine trying to muscle her in with full fuel without the T1. Simple to operate and rock steady in use. Perfect speed for hand towing and great traction on every surface I’ve used it on.” – James P., Cirrus SR22 owner

Moves my aircraft with ease
“Delivery and startup were very easy. The T1 was almost ready to go upon delivery. It only needed the handle to be mounted. It moves my Piper Arrow II with ease.” – Bill, Piper Arrow II owner

Works fine, a few improvements could be made
“Power, traction, and controls work fine, and I have not had issues with going over a 2” curb, even when starting up against the curb. My plane is on the lighter side, and there has been no wheel slip on dry pavement. I have not used it on wet pavement or snow. It is easier to control the positioning of the plane in the hangar with the T1 than manually pushing. The light is a nice touch and helps me know if I left the switch on.
The ability to make sharper turns without lifting the unit would be a big plus. Add-on adapter kits would help provide sales to existing users.” – Dianne T., Vashon Ranger owner

Performance is great
“This is my second AeroTow. I had my first one for over ten years. It worked great. When I sold my plane, I sold it with the plane. Now I have another Cirrus, and I had to get another AeroTow. Again, totally satisfied. They did a terrific job at packaging and shipping, and, once again, performance is great.” – Randy Furr, Cirrus SR22 owner
