"A bit of useless information but the entrance to the hangar was too low for the tail to go under. Some bright spark came up with the idea of a ramp for the nose wheel inside the hangar just at the point where the tail was about to go in which tipped the tail down and popped it back up when inside."
I am trying to imagine how this was possible, as the Andover was towed by the nosewheel?
Unless it was done with a pulley/hawser system, which would make extracting same even more elaborate!
