Aircraft transporter

for airport

Overview
The Aircraft Recovery Sledge System is a modular solution for controlled removal and transport of disabled aircraft. It can operate in trailer mode for hard surfaces or as a sledge for soft terrain, allowing rapid, safe recovery operations on paved and unpaved surfaces.

Key benefits

• Dual-mode operation: trailer mode (hard surfaces) and sledge mode (soft terrain)
• Delivered as a complete kit including slings, chains, shackles, straps and essential rigging
• Integrated pneumatic lifting bags and analogue/digital load monitoring to protect aircraft skin
• Quick assembly and minimal personnel required for rapid response
• Designed for easy positioning under fuselage or wings
• Modular and scalable: multiple sledge units can be combined to match aircraft size and incident
• 360° rotating wheels and all-wheel steering for high manoeuvrability
• Forklift-ready steel frame with forkliftable spacers and rigging kit for handling and transport

Compliance & compatibility
Designed to support established aircraft recovery procedures (ARM/ARD) and to meet relevant international regulations. Compatible with pneumatic lifting bags and turntable platforms where required.
