For charter flights BA owned 2 towbar adaptors so you could use a B747 towbar to push back a Concord. They were closely guarded to stop them getting lost. We had a Concord in ARN on a charter, and after the push back was completed, I detached the adaptor and the flight engineer lowered a rope from the R1 door and fished it back on board!

suppie,
Please read carefully what I wrote - I spoke about the MLG (MAIN landing gear). It has lugs especially for recovery movements!
I consider my question therefore still as open.
