AMS Aircraft Recovery has announced the launch of a new Disabled Aircraft Recovery Dolly. The dolly is designed to clear blocked runways caused by blown tires or damaged wheels and landing gear swiftly and safely. It can be utilized for both nose and main landing gear situations.

The company highlights that blown tires and damaged wheels are the leading causes of runway and taxiway blockages. The new dolly allows airports, Fixed Base Operators (FBOs), and aircraft operators to restore operations quickly, minimizing costly disruptions. With a capacity of 38 tonnes, it is suitable for narrow-body commercial aircraft, regional jets, business aircraft, and nose gear incidents involving wide-body aircraft.

The dolly features integrated running gear for rapid deployment, hydraulics to lower the platform deck, and a hauling system to efficiently pull the aircraft onto the dolly.

Drawing on our many years of experience, we designed a tool that can be safely used by airfield personnel to mobilize the disabled aircraft quickly and minimize the risk of secondary damage to aircraft.”
