pirate.gif Indeed ... As for the aircraft tug , these were regulars across most airports ramps in the NZ until the late 1980s, least very popular here in Christchurch , an American design tho the above has been modified somewhat but if you have books on aircraft carriers you would find these on the decks of the late in WWII on Essex class aircraft carriers and even on the decks of the larger Forestal class during the 50/60s - the Willy's Jeep of aircraft tugs/tractors
