The jig includes a weighted base and a vertical post extending upwardly therefrom. A horizontal beam is pivotally connected to the top of the post through a ball joint and trunnion with the connection being radially offset from the axis of the post. Front and rear wheel clamps adjustably mounted adjacent the ends of the horizontal beam attach to the wheels of an airplane and secure the plane to the jig.
