The ground-based recovery system for aircraft with disabled landing gear includes an in-ground recovery vehicle channel in which an aircraft recovery vehicle travels. Additional lateral slots contain lateral wheel trucks extending from the vehicle to secure the vehicle positively within the channel. The vehicle is preferably powered by at least one turbojet engine and has an aircraft recovery cradle extending therefrom, the cradle articulating to capture and support the disabled aircraft. The cradle includes wing supports and leading and trailing edge retaining arms to prevent relative movement of the disabled aircraft on the recovery vehicle. Additional retaining straps are deployed from the sides of the cradle to secure the aircraft positively to the recovery vehicle. The recovery vehicle is accelerated along its channel to match its speed closely to the landing speed of the disabled aircraft, enabling the aircraft to land upon the vehicle cradle without significant damage.
