Next time, pit the G Wagon against a Land Cruiser and Defender.

The reason why the G-wagen managed to pull the plane is that to overcome the friction and rolling coefficient the car need to pull a load of about 3 tonne which the G wagen is more then capable. So although it looks impressive, the situation would have changed if the plane would have the wheels locked. So hands up for who did the cals for this to work hence the choice of the plane to be towed.😊
