Abstract
Apparatuses for supporting an aircraft component adjacent to an aircraft and methods for the same are provided. In one example, the apparatus includes an adapter for removably coupling to the aircraft component. A winch subassembly includes an axle that is coupled to the adapter and has a longitudinal axis. A first gear is operatively coupled to the axle to drive the axle to rotate about the longitudinal axis for rotating the adapter. The winch subassembly is configured to couple to a lift to position the adapter adjacent to the aircraft.
