I assume you are planning to use a jack to raise the wheel with the flat?

The creeper concept is ok, but the first problem is the weight. You
need to expect 1000 lb per wheel for a single (Bonanza). Sure, the
passengers will be out, but the plane may be full of fuel and baggage.

The wheels on a creeper or on the dollies sold at Home Depot are another
issue. Even if they could take the weight, they are just too small for
cracked taxiways.

I recently moved a 650 lb grand piano and bought my supplies from Movers
Supply House in the Bronx. They sell a variety of dollies under $150.

There are also piano mover dollies designed for outdoor use, including
some with air tires. I would investigate those, too.

Good luck.

I need to acquire a dolly capable of recovering a typical general
aviation aircraft with a flat tire.
I would like something that I can just place the flat tire wheel
assembly onto without removing wheel pants or brakes. It also needs
to be capable of being towed up to a mile using only one tug.

Any ideas?
