Abstract
An apparatus for moving aircraft on flat surfaces with the aid of cables which, on the one hand, act on the aircraft and, on the other hand, pass to winch drums via guide pulleys which are in part displaceable is characterized in that, for moving aircraft, in particular helicopters, multi-drum winches are provided on a ship's deck with the winch drums being drivable via differential transmissions by two motors which are controllable by means of a joystick operable in the sense of the intended movement of the aircraft.
