The AGSE-D037 Modular Dock System provides access to service and maintain the DC10, MD11, and A300-600 Aircraft. Vertical dock adjustment is provided by pin legs spaced at three inch intervals. This will accommodate the various aircraft jacking heights. Access to various deck levels is accomplished by stairs attached to each dock module. ‘Clip-on’ stairs are included to adjust stair height over the vertical travel range of the dock modules. Each module is caster mounted for easy positioning.

Utilities, such as pneumatic, electric, and lighting are included on the various dock modules. The AGSE-D037 configuration consists of the following modules:

The AGSE-T027 B777 Nose landing Gear Dolly is specifically designed for local site transport of the B777 nose landing gear main shock strut with wheels and down lock removed. The dolly consists of a base assembly and fixture designed for securing the gear. A sling is needed to install the gear onto dolly. The gear secures dolly easily using the upper torsion link for an attach point, the axles, and adjustable straps on both sides of yoke. The dolly is towable, with swivel locks and face brakes on the casters.

The AGSE-M143-G01 Engine Work Stand is a structure providing access to the GE90 engine while it is positioned in pedestals. The platforms can be positioned at various heights, adjusted by an electric motor on each platform leg.

The Range Simulation and Diagnostic Station (RSDS) provides a climactically clean room environment housing instrumentation and equipment for the purpose of supporting the ABL Test Program. The RSDS is designed to be used in conjunction with the AGSE-M122 Turret Maintenance and Conditioning Platform (TMCP).
The RSDS is supported by a Rolling Base that is fabricated primarily from structural grade tube steel. The Rolling Base is horizontally cross-braced to ensure square alignment of the vertical lift system. Four (4) ton capacity floor jacks are mounted to the rolling base to stabilize the structure. The floor jacks feature hand crank operation of a worm gear and acme screw actuator with swivel-mounted shoes.
The RSDS features a 10,000 clean room with a separately partitioned gowning area. A sliding door separates the two rooms. The environment of both rooms is climactically controlled by a system made up of a air conditioner, humidifier, blower and HEPA filters. The rooms also feature fluorescent lighting, insulated walls, smoke detectors, fire sprinklers and power outlets. The clean room has a pendant control for vertical and horizontal motion and communication headsets that can be plugged in at various locations.

The AM-1217 Wing Stands have been designed specifically for under wing, leading and trailing edge access of the Lockheed L-1011 and the Boeing 747 in the jacked and un-jacked condition. Due to their vertical adjustment, excellent access is afforded to other wide body aircraft, such as Douglas DC-10's, the family of Airbus A300's and new generations such as B767/757. Although designed for under wing se, each stand (12 in total) may be used on other areas of the aircraft such as the horizontal stabilizer and elevator. Each stand has an adjustable parallelogram stair with non-skid "AERODECK" treads. Platforms match the nominal dihedral of the aircraft and have "AERODECK" flooring with slider sections at each end. Platforms are elevated by an air-operated twin jack screw assembly driving a single scissor. Upper and lower limit devices prevent over-travel. Mobility is provided with large diameter swivel casters with locks and full face contact brakes. Services consist of electrical and air convenience outlets. Lighting is provided in the form of fluorescent light wans wired directly into junction boxes. Electrical service to the stand is from hanger power and connects to a pig-tail fitting at the base of the stand. Air service to the stands also connects at the base with each stand or interconnecting stands. A connecting hose is supplied so that up to three (3) stands along the leading edge or three (3) sections along the trailing edge may be connected. Air manifolds are located on top of each platform. The elevating system is air-powered with a control valve located on top of the platform next to the stair landing. The air system is protected with a filter and lubricator. Each stand is supplied with a tow bar, but lightweight construction will allow hand movement by three (3) to four (4) personnel.

The AGSE-M042 Engine Access Stand is for use with GE90 engines used on B777 aircraft. it consists of two separate stands, one for the left hand side (-G01), and one for the right hand side (-G02) to gain full access around the engine. Retractable Aerodeck sliders with bumpers conform to contour of engine. Four hand jacking legs adjust deck height from 72" to 85". The stand has polyurethane casters with swivel locks and face brakes, and a tow-bar which swings up to stow on the stand frame when not in use. Towing speed for stand is 5 Km/h (3 MPH). The stand should be positioned manually up to the aircraft.

See manual for dimensions.

The AGSE-M057 Engine Access Stand is a three-level, fixed height structure providing engine access for MD80 and MD90 Aircraft. Handrail is provided around the outside of the top deck, and protective bumpers protect against inadvertent contact with aircraft. In addition to the three levels, there is an inboard step assembly at the lowest level providing access beneath the engine. Two stands are provided for the left and right hand sides (-G01/-G02). Each stand is equipped with a jib boom to aid in the handling of inlet cowl, engine access doors, and on the left side, the dorsal section. The jib boom has a hook travel of 244 inches (approx. 20 Ft.), and a weight capacity of 500 Lbs. Two fixed stairways (forward/aft) provide access to the ground. The right hand stand has a notch in the deck at the forward inboard corner to facilitate access to the cargo compartment.

The Sloping Longeron stand allows technician access along the full length of the main cargo bay longerons during repair or replacement. It is specifically designed to collapse for a low profile such that it may be rolled under the tail mezzanine and into the cargo bay area. Once positioned along the edge of the cargo bay, it is hydraulically raised into position.

The AM-1196 Center Engine Stand was designed to provide access to the number two engine with the tail cone up or down and with the patio doors open. With the tail cone up and the doors open, slider sections (8-1/2" in width) can be extended out from the cutout section of the platform to contour around the doors. These sliders are deployed by using a "T" bar and have a protective bumper as does the front edge of the cutout area. When the tail cone is lowered a center rolling platform can be moved forward, from its stowed position at the rear of the platform, to cover up the cutout and provide a solid work surface 23' in width. A forward safety barrier is supplied for added protection while mechanics are working near the front edge of the stand and at a height where standard handrails do not provide adequate protection against a fall. The barrier is a parallelogram structure on which a safety ne has been attached. After an aircraft has been docked a mechanic can swing the safety barrier inboard. A rubber pad fastened to a foot supports the frame against the skin forward of the firewall. On each inboard side of the safety net along strap with buckle assembly has been provided and can be attached to a harness hard point on the forward patio wall and drawn tight keeping the safety barrier against the aircraft. A slotted bar keeps the barrier upright and in a stowed, outboard position.
The platform elevation is adjustable and is set at an approximate 24' during erection. Should the stand require future adjustment, lever arm hoist (Tuggits, Coffing, etc.) from airline bootstrap kits can be utilized and attached to lugs located on each leg, Adjustment is accomplished by cranking the lever arm hoist up, removing four (4) SS pins and re-pinning at the desired elevation.
