The FBO at my home field uses an electric golf cart to move their rental
aircraft and some other aircraft around. It moves an Aztec with no
difficulties, even loaded with 120+ gallons of fuel. Do watch the turn
limits on the nose gear; they damaged their Dutchess with uncareful
handling this way.
Would it work on a Citation CJ or a JetProp?
