Landing gear access

Access equipment innovator, Planet
Platforms has designed and installed
a mobile work at height solution to
safely access various components in
and around the landing gear of
aircraft. At just over three metres
platform height, the bespoke unit is
built with a combination of steel and
aluminium, is robust enough to be
towed, whilst not being too heavy to
manually position and deploy the
attached inclined ladder.

Used for inspection purposes, the
unit can be quickly and easily towed
into position and features adjustable
ladders to cater for access to different
heights of the area. Spring-loaded
jacks are used to lock the unit once it
has been wheeled into position, as
they are quicker to engage than winddown
jacks.
