Working on the ideal single engine tug!
My FBO has a old Craftsman lawn mower, sans blade, and a universal tow
bar. Works great. With the tow bar was a little lighter, though. I just
need to learn to back up with it. I am great with cars and trailers, but
this thing goes the wrong way with each turn. I just disconnect the tow
bar from the tug and stear it in. A 172 isn't that heavy.

Good luck with you company, but most small airplane owner's
just use muscle power or a clip-on tire roller.
