Yep.

The tow bar is well constructed and good to use.

But that locking pin bending is a darn nuisance.

It has happened to me numerous times, and each time I have had to remove the base plate to get access with pliers to get it off.

The pin then requires technical impaction to straighten it.

Watch out for unfamiliar helpers. Almost invariably with their enthusiasm for going for a ride in a Lancair they want to help pull the aircraft around and bingo!

I think a better designed locking function would be great.

I can think of one but can’t draw for nuts.
