hmmmmmm, imagine trying to squeeze a metal plate under your car's tire without moving the car, a damn near impossibility. And one other thing I forgot to mention, the "cradling" procedure as it's called calls for leaving the aft chocks in place during the process so the aircraft won't roll back in case someting goes wrong.
