A wheel dolly for lifting and transporting a flat tire attached to an aircraft is comprised of a frame assembly having first and second laterally spaced frame members and a telescopic frame structure interposed between the laterally spaced frame members. A pair of tire scoops are pivotally coupled the frame assembly. An actuator is coupled between the tire scoops to pivot the tire scoops relative to the frame assembly in order to raise the tire scoops. A plurality of castors is coupled to the frame assembly to allow the frame assembly to roll in any direction.
