After flying home, my passenger (non-pilot) jumps out of the Archer
and goes over to the elevator to help push the plane back. I had
to explain to him the difference between a 10,000lbs fighter and
1,600lbs Archer. I can move an Archer with one hand on the tow
bar. Moving a Sea Fury takes a dozen or more friends.
There is always a right way, and a wrong way. A Sea Fury is made of much
stouter stuff than our Spam Cans.
In addition to the episode I described (in the thread "Dumb and Dumber")
I've seen people push on spinners to move planes, and I've seen people
pulling on props way out at the tip, too.
It boggles the mind.
