An adjustable aircraft engagement mechanism 10 for an aircraft mover 44, comprising: a cradle body 14 which defines an aircraft engagement region 50; and first, second and third clamping elements 20a, 20b, 20c engageable with nose landing gear 12 of an aircraft when positioned within aircraft engagement region 50. At least one of the clamping elements 20a, 20h, 20c is actuatable relative to at least one of the other clamping elements 20a, 20b, 20c between engaged and disengaged conditions of the adjustable aircraft engagement mechanism 10. The clamping elements 20a, 20b, 20c are further operable, when in an engaged condition, to define a triangular clamp that secures the nose landing gear 12. The clamping elements are each associated with cradle body portions 18a,18b,18c that are actuatable relative to one another and may be pivotably engaged with one another. The engagement mechanism may further comprise a lifting mechanism engageable with the cradle body.
