Begtodiffer

Yes you can lift an a/c with all tyres flat or burst....
you use a jack called an alligator instead of the normal rhino one
has a much lower lifting point though there are not many around
I'll grant you
we used to have one for just that purpose and was only used once by the then dan-air at lgw on one of their 146's that did much the same thing.
What happened to it after the airline bust i don't know
