Lightweight Aircraft Tug Solution for Hangars & FBOs

Keeping aircraft positioned safely and efficiently in crowded hangars and storage areas can be challenging without the right ground handling equipment. The GoTow® Drill-Powered Tow Bar provides a portable aircraft towing solution designed for FBOs, maintenance facilities, flight schools, and private aircraft owners who need precise maneuverability without the size and expense of conventional tug systems.Powered by a standard cordless drill, the GoTow® aircraft tug helps operators reposition light aircraft smoothly while reducing physical strain and simplifying day-to-day hangar operations.

Why Operators Choose the GoTow® Drill-Powered Tow Bar

The GoTow® helps simplify aircraft repositioning during hangar storage, maintenance operations, fueling preparation, and routine aircraft movement. Its drill-powered design provides controlled maneuverability without the storage requirements, charging downtime, or maintenance concerns associated with larger powered tug systems.The lightweight aluminum construction and compact footprint also make the GoTow® easy to transport between hangars, airport ramps, and maintenance facilities.

Why Aircraft Ground Handling Efficiency Matters

Hangars, maintenance facilities, and shared aviation spaces often leave very little room for maneuvering aircraft safely. Traditional aircraft towing methods can increase the risk of accidental contact with walls, equipment, or neighboring aircraft, especially when repositioning airplanes manually.

The GoTow® Drill-Powered Tow Bar helps operators maintain smoother, more controlled aircraft movement during repositioning, parking, and maintenance operations. Its ergonomic steering design and powered traction allow for more precise handling in tight spaces where accuracy matters most.

Portable Aircraft Towing Without the Bulk of Traditional Tugs

Full-size towing equipment can be expensive, difficult to store, and unnecessary for routine repositioning tasks.

The GoTow® offers a more portable alternative by combining compact design with drill-powered operation. Because it uses a standard cordless drill, operators can simplify equipment management while maintaining the power needed for efficient aircraft movement.

Its compact footprint also makes it easier to transport, store, and move between hangars or facilities compared to larger powered towing systems.

An Easier Way To Reposition Aircraft Efficiently

Many aircraft owners and operators do not require a large dedicated aircraft tug for everyday aircraft movement. By using a standard cordless drill for power, the GoTow® provides a simpler and more portable alternative for positioning light aircraft in hangars, maintenance bays, and storage facilities.

This drill-powered approach helps eliminate:

  • onboard battery maintenance
  • charging downtime
  • oversized towing equipment
  • unnecessary storage requirements

Because many operators already own compatible cordless drills, the GoTow® also helps reduce overall equipment costs while simplifying routine aircraft handling.

Simplify Aircraft Positioning & Hangar Movement

Moving your aircraft doesn’t have to slow down operations or require expensive, space-eating tugs. The GoTow® Drill-Powered Tow Bar offers a cost-effective, lightweight alternative that simplifies aircraft positioning, pre-flight prep, and hangar logistics.

Which aircraft can GoTow® move?

The GoTow® Drill Powered Tow Bar is compatible with many Cessna and Cirrus aircraft right out of the box. Optional adapter sets are also available to support additional aircraft models and nosewheel configurations.
