Abstract: A ground handling system for lifting, supporting, maneuvering, and transporting aircraft fitted with skid-type landing gear comprising a dolly assembly of tandem wheel assemblies, a yoke assembly, and a detachable jack assembly. The jack assembly utilizes a modified, standard, hand-operated hydraulic jack mounted on a platform straddling the skid tube to provide over-center lifting force to existing fixed wheel attachment strong points on the skid tubes. An adjustable inverted U-shaped lift member translates the vertical thrust of the piston of the jack below the platform to the skid tube. An adaptor pivotally mounted to the lift member grasps and accommodates unevenly-mounted attachment points. Two jack assemblies are utilized to lift the aircraft generally simultaneously at opposing attachment points which are generally at the plane of the center of gravity of the aircraft.
