Abstract: A hauling vehicle, notably for hauling big aircraft, has an elevatable framework provided with a recess extending inwardly from one end with guideways in its side walls, in each of which there is a pair of spaced slides. Mounted in the slides are the axles of elongated horizontal support members or sole-pieces pivotally supporting parallel upper and lower shoes. The recess can be opened to receive aircraft wheels by swinging out the shoes at the outer end of the recess. After the shoes have been swung back into place, the slides in each guideway can be moved toward each other to engage all of the shoes with the aircraft wheels in the recess.

Abstract: The invention relates to a body for vehicles, as well as to vehicles carrying such a body, wherein the side surfaces of said body consist of modular elements assembled to one another, each of said modular element having an angle extension forming at least a portion of the roof of said body.
