(2) 8" diameter heavy duty flat free wheels and fits LSA thru Stearman.

The use of this tow bar is based on flat hard surfaces. PICKER-1 has a straight handlebar.

The PICKER-1 is for tail-dragger/conventional gear aircraft and has 100% fully adjustable Picker-Pins on ((1)) side only.

This PICKER is intended for tail wheels up to 6-inches wide and up to 15-inches in diameter. Those dimensions just mentioned exceed the size of a 500 x 5.0 nose wheel.

Some tail dragger aircraft have 500 x 5.0 nose wheels installed as their tail wheels.

This towbar fits all Van's RV tail draggers and J3-Cubs thru 450 Stearmans. The PICKER you see here is a rugged built and powder coated tail dragger tow-bar made with heavy duty materials and hardware.

A benefit of the design truly enables the pilot or ground crew to literally make an infinite number of adjustments to ensure a perfect fit every single time for a multitude of aircraft with tail wheels.

The PICKER-1 can even be quickly dialed-in by hand using NO TOOLS most of the time. You can adjust the location of the tail wheel anywhere. This is very likely one of the simplest universal 2-wheeled tow-bars out there.

Frequent Questions

Q:

Will the Tail Wheel jump out of the tow bar when I pull my airplane up a slight incline into my hangar?

A:

No, simply adjust the pins so that your tire sinks down deep into the nest area just enough so that your tail wheel does not fall thru just like the directions strongly indicate and you will be more than fine. However, if you have an unusually steep or odd condition, be sure to contact us just to make sure there's not a problem.

Q:

What's the main difference between the -1 & -2 for the tail wheel?

A:

Simple, the -2 is a wider unit, hosting Picker pins on both the left & right side of the frame instead of just one side like the -1. This gives you the ability to have (2) set-ups for multiple aircraft in one hangar and therefore Pick up any combination of two tail wheel sizes without making any further adjustments.

Do I need the -2 for heavier airplanes?

A:

Nope..., The team designed it so that does not matter.

Q:

We have a very large hangar with an RV3, RV9, new CUB with a baby bush tire, a Globe/Temco Swift, a PT-17 Stearman plus a WACO. Our question has left everyone we've talked to so far scratching their heads... Q: is it even remotely possible to purchase only one "low cost" standard tow bar for all of these unique aircraft..? So far we've not been able to find anything on the market..., Can you help us...?

A:

Yes, just see the last couple pictures in the gallery or click the gallery arrows on the LEFT side of the window.

Q:

WHY a dual wheel PICKER...?

A:

Simple, over the years I have spoke with thousands of pilots and you wouldn't believe how many deal with less than perfect conditions just trying to push their planes out of the hangar..., when I asked them what they would prefer..., all of them basically described the BUSH PICKER-2B, so I thought it should be available to own.

Q:

How many sizes of tail wheels will this fit...?

A:

Oh my, where do I begin... Okay, let's just say for a powered taildragger aircraft that you can get into and fly..., my answer would be... the smallest available up to a 15-inch "diameter" / 6-inch "wide" tire (left to right). They can even handle a 450 horse power Stearman as well which can weigh about 4,000 pounds or more. So, that pretty much covers most aircraft in general aviation.
