Abstract: Improved wheel-lift apparatus comprising wheel dolly or caddy devices useful to provide mobility, lift and support for aircraft wheel assemblies for facilitating aircraft maneuverability in hanger or storage areas, comprised of generally U-shaped adjustable frame support devices having an adjustable cross member and a pair of parallel spaced extended end frame members defining an opening therebetween within which to laterally receive an aircraft wheel assembly, a pair of lift plate devices oppositely-disposed and supported by the extended frame members, respectively, at least one of the lift plate devices being pivotally movable to engage the wheel assembly to provide lift thereof, pivotal cam devices connected to the movable lift plate devices and providing upward and downward pivotal movement thereto, threaded rotatable gear devices having an elongated length dimension and engaging the pivotal cam devices on a distal free end thereof, said gear devices being movable along its length dimension to provide piv

Abstract: An inclining apparatus for lifting and storing aircraft in a stacked or tiered arrangement is provided to permit increased utilization of presently available hangar space. Aircraft are stored in upper and lower stowing positions. The apparatus is completely self-supporting and includes an inclining frame for loading and unloading aircraft from the upper stowing position. The apparatus is constructed to permit stowing or removal of an aircraft from either the upper or lower stowing positions without moving or disturbing the other aircraft stowed in the accompanying position.
