Keep that runway open!
“The 100K PlaneSkate paid for itself the first time we used it. It is now an essential piece of equipment in our inventory”
Joe Harris - MAC - Minneapolis International Airport
The (5th Generation) Model-15K PlaneSkate is the fastest and safest way of clearing a disabled aircraft with a flat tire from a hard surface runway, taxiway, or ramp without having to go through the time consuming process of jacking, removing and replacing the tire, brake assembly, or even mess with wheel fairings. The Model-15K PlaneSkate reduces unnecessary runway closure time and takes only minutes to load and clear. This saves lost runway time making your airport and the traffic pattern safer faster.
The Model-15K PlaneSkate is made of quarter inch solid steel plates with eight (8) 1500 lbs. heavy-duty casters (12,000 lbs. per landing gear leg), making this durable platform capable of moving most aircraft with a gross weight of more than 15,000 lbs. and less.
The Model 15-K is also designed with ample deck space to load most aircraft equipped with wheel fairings and dual tire gear. It even works on tail wheel aircraft!
