This specification prescribes general requirements for marking of aircraft ground support equipment and other vehicles (i.e., runway sweepers, firetrucks, refuelers, etc.), used on or near the flight line area with retro-reflective materials.

The purpose of this specification is to provide airplane operators and tow vehicle manufacturers with: a General design and operating requirements pertinent to test and evaluation of towbarless tow vehicles. Specific design requirements are provided in ARP4852 and ARP4853. b Test and evaluation requirements. The results of these test evaluations will determine if the loads induced by the tow vehicle will exceed the design loads of the nose gear, or are within the aircraft manufacturer’s limits so that they do not affect the certified safe limit of the nose gear. The results of these test evaluations will also determine if a stability problem may occur during pushback and/or maintenance towing operations with the tested airplane/tow vehicle combination. This document specifies general test requirements and a test evaluation procedure for towbarless tow vehicles (TLTV) intended for pushback and maintenance towing only.
The scope of this recommended practice covers specialized internal combustion engine powered equipment used in the support of aircraft operations. The equipment may be self-propelled, truck mounted, trailer mounted, skid mounted or stationary. It does not include construction equipment or equipment designed primarily for operation on highways or within factories or building areas.
The following recommendations and suggestions are made for consideration for procurement of new equipment, or modification to existing equipment where practical. Excluded from this AIR is mobile ground equipment, such as fork lift trucks and front end loaders, that have a functional requirement for simultaneous vehicle motion and accessory operation.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) outlines the design and functional requirements for aircraft passenger lifts, operated manually and self-propelled. The primary function of the lift described in this document is to act as an elevator between ground level and aircraft doorsills to a maximum of 144 in.

This Aerospace Information Report (AIR) outlines the conditions which diesel engines should meet when installed and used as prime movers for aircraft ground support equipment at commercial airports. All aircraft ground support equipment with a heavy duty diesel engine as defined on page 24293 of the November 15, 1972 Federal Register and used as a prime mover for the vehicle or equipment should meet all requirements as outlined herein. Typical equipment includes fuel trucks, commissary trucks, baggage tractors, ground power units, air start units, etc.
