Where will you find the BTUs to charge the tugs? Isn't the theory that the plane has free amps to spare either from
an APU that must be running anyway or batteries charged off the main engines while flying much like free heat to warm
your automobile.

Just brainstorming so this may be a completely wrong idea.

Ok, some way to electrically connect the tug to the jet to use the jet's 'free' amps? Charge the tug while it is
tugging?


Or the other way around; power the plane from the tug until engine start...
