The only tow bar in aviation history where it was easier to leave the tow bar static - and then move the aircraft to fit it.

Oh yes - I remember one cold foggy/snowy morning on Charlie Diespersal at an airfield north of Lincoln where the Cpl MT driver got impatient when we were wrestling with one. Without prompting, and despite our screams, he decided to align the holes for one of the towing pins using his fingers. Well suffice to say he would never pick his nose with that hand again.
