English term

wing walker

English to French Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space remorquage d\\\'aéronefs
Lektro captures done from the front of the aircraft ‘pull’ the aircraft onto the Lektro cradle.
This can be dangerous if the aircraft is initially within 2 feet of other obstructions either inside or outside the hangar.
Since travel distance of the aircraft nose gear can be of the same length.
If wing walkers and the Lektro operator aren’t alert, the aircraft or surrounding objects can be damaged before the tow commences.
Furthermore, connections made at an angle to a Delta wing aircraft can result in wing travel distance in excess of 2 feet.
