LETR Plane Pull

The Plane Pull is the ultimate tug-of-war competition as teams compete to pull an aircraft 12 feet as quickly as possible.  Awards are given to the fastest pull in various divisions, fastest pull overall and top fundraising team.

In 2020, due to the state’s restrictions regarding the COVID-19 pandemic the Illinois LETR was unable to host any in-person Plane Pull fundraising events. Instead, a virtual Plane Pull was hosted and raised nearly $10,000 for the athletes!

Our team is working diligently to coordinate efforts for 2021. We hope restrictions are lifted and we are able to return to the runway this fall and pull together IN PERSON for the athletes! More information will be available in early summer.
