Airlift AL70: Options

Proportional Winch Control

The Airlift AL70 can be equipped with a proportional winch, providing precise and gradual control of the towing force for perfectly controlled maneuvers. With this technology, the user can finely adjust the towing force according to the weight and size of the aircraft.This proportional control helps reduce the risk of jolts and damage, ensuring smooth and efficient towing.

"Lynx Scream" Sound Alert

The Airlift AL70 can be equipped with a sound alert system, the "Lynx Scream" which is crucial for ensuring safety during ground operations. This system emits a loud and distinct sound alert while being less shrill than a traditional reverse alarm, enhancing user comfort for the operator.

Solid soft tire

The solid soft tire of the Airlift AL70 are specially designed to provide exceptional traction on a variety of surfaces, whether on runways, hangar floors, or parking areas.Their composition offers stable traction, essential for aircraft towing, especially in unfavorable weather conditions or on slippery surfaces.

Large Display

The Airlift AL70 can be equipped with a large display that provides a clear and ergonomic user interface.Thanks to its generous size, this display allows operators to easily view essential real-time information, such as battery status, safety notifications, and the position of the central wheel.

2 Additional Batteries

The Airlift AL70 is designed to maximize the efficiency of ground operations. The addition of two extra batteries extends the operating range during these operations.This increased autonomy not only boosts productivity but also helps reduce the carbon footprint of ground operations by optimizing the use of clean energy.

Reverse and Stop Lights

The Airlift AL70 features an advanced lighting system, including reverse lights and stop lights, which are essential for ensuring safety during ground maneuvers. These lights clearly signal the reverse movements of the tug, providing increased visibility to other operators and ground personnel. Additionally, the stop lights immediately alert others to the vehicle’s halt, reducing the risk of collisions and ensuring smooth coordination during pushback operations. This feature contributes to creating a safer working environment, even in low-light conditions, while adhering to the strictest safety standards in the aerospace industry.
