Aircraft Damage Caused by Ground Support Equipment
AIR1589A
Only those incidents where a piece of ground support equipment directly associated with the "turnaround" servicing of an aircraft was involved are reviewed. Specifically excluded are those incidents that occurred during heavy maintenance, overhaul activity, or aircraft taxiing.
Rationale:
A complete revision to this report was made to remove detailed statistical information that was obsolete. The detailed information has been replaced with general statements concerning aircraft damage caused by ground support equipment.
