Sporty’s is proud to introduce the Flight Gear Pull-Down Tie-Down Kit—the simple and reliable solution for keeping your aircraft secure. Featuring an innovative rope-ratcheting system, which allows for quick and effortless tightening and release, this device is designed with the pilot in mind.
Securing your aircraft has never been easier. Simply attach one of the coated hooks to the aircraft and the other hook to the tie-down anchor point. Then, with very little effort, pull the rope through the automatic ratcheting system to secure the aircraft. When you are ready to fly, use the quick-release trigger on the ratcheting mechanism to release the ropes. It is that simple and quick, with no complicated knots or manual ratcheting required.
The included ropes come in high-visibility orange, ensuring easy identification of your aircraft and providing added safety when moving around the tie-down area. A special reflective material is interwoven with the rope to make it highly reflective when illuminated with a light. Designed to accommodate both high and low-wing aircraft, the Flight Gear Pull-Down Tie-Down Kit includes two ropes, measuring ten feet each, and one rope, measuring six feet, for the aircraft tail. All ropes are 3/8" diameter, providing ample strength for a secure hold, even in gusty conditions.
“This new tie-down system is constructed from high-quality, weather-resistant materials to withstand the harshest conditions, like what we experience in the Midwest,” said Sporty’s Director of Aviation Products, Doug Ranly. “And the intuitive ratchet design reduces the time and effort required to secure aircraft, making it an ideal solution for pilots, owners and line personnel.”
A convenient carrying bag is included for portability and to save space when stored in your aircraft. The Flight Gear Pull-Down Tie-Down Kit [10758A] is available for $49.95 and may be purchased at Sportys.com or by calling 1-800-SPORTYS.
