“We have wanted to design and build a higher weight class tug for a long time, but it had to live up to the BestTugs name. Sierra is a culmination of technology, durability and features that have never been seen on a tug in this class. At BestTugs we have always sought to think beyond the status quo. We believe that a tug should be an extension of the plane. It should have class and style that matches the aviator lifestyle, innovation that presses into tomorrow, and durability to exceed our customer’s expectations. Sierra is that and more and we could not be more proud to present it at Air Venture 2021.” Said Mark Patey, founder and CEO.
The launch of Sierra will include feature details. Launch time is scheduled for 1:30 PM Central Time at Best Aviation/BestTugs booth in Hangar C.
