LEKTRO is the global leader in electric, towbarless aircraft towing vehicles. Their patented universal cradle gently lifts the nose gear and allows for unparalleled towing maneuverability.
LEKTRO invented the first towbarless towing vehicle in 1967 and continues to pioneer leading technologies for safer, more efficient aircraft towing. Their all-electric towing vehicles come in five different model series that can handle aircraft ranging from the smallest piston aircraft to narrow body airliners like the Boeing 757.
