New in the WEYER portfolio: strain relief for GPU cables.
GPU connectors are plugged into the aircraft socket – but they often hang vertically. The significant weight of the cable may result in the aircraft connector being pulled out of the aircraft.
To secure the plug, a relief hook is attached, a so-called cable strain relief, which relieves the plug of the weight of the cable.
Two different hooks are used for this:
- Stainless steel hook
This is hooked into an eyelet that is located near the aircraft plug socket.
- Plastic claw
This is specifically required, e.g. for the B737/B757, and is attached below the plug.
The plastic prevents damage to the aircraft.
In addition, the WEYER strain relief is equipped with a stainless steel buckle and a flame-retardant webbing.

NEW: One JetTrac for everything – the new JetCart from Via Guide
Via Guide has been ensuring orderly boarding with its JetTrac for years. Now they have taken on the topic of how to make walkboarding, i.e. passenger boarding, more efficient – more and more airlines are expecting shorter and more efficient handling. The new Via Guide JetCart has everything on board that is lying around on the apron for this purpose, sometimes this equipment has to be laboriously searched for or can be lost in the wind:
- Up to 10 chocks are sufficient for all types of aircraft
- 8 cones to secure all danger spots
- A FOD container for collecting flying rubbish
- Broom and shovel
- Optional: A grit container for oil binding agents or de-icing granulate in winter
- Optional: fire extinguisher for quick intervention
- And of course, two JetTrac belt rolls, each 25 meters long, to secure the walkways
Electric ground power units from Guinault
Battery-based ground power units are enjoying increasing popularity and are now standard equipment at many airports.
Guinault also offers powerful E-GPUs with special lithium-ion batteries.
You lower the noise level on the apron, have lower operating costs and can handle several aircraft one after the other – depending on the version.
The battery ground power units from Guinault are characterized by:
- 400Hz / 90kVA power on one, optionally also two outputs, optionally with 28Vd
- Depending on the version, up to 200kWh available
- SSpecial lithium-ion batteries offer more capacity than comparable batteries because they can be completely discharged (+ 20% capacity)
- Very quiet
- Very low running costs
- Very easy to use
Hangar too small? Buy an aircraft tractor!
There is still space in the aircraft hangar – but the new aircraft is too big, doesn’t fit through the hall gate? There is a simple solution: The Flyer Truck FLT200RC – as a high loader. By lifting the nose wheel, the stern is lowered so that the aircraft can also fit through smaller hangar doors. But that is not the only advantage – the FLT200RC is a very universal tug, remotely controlled and therefore also very maneuverable, which is very useful in the hangar in order to be able to place aircrafts close together. The large wheels also allow driving over thresholds or bumps.
Technical specifications:
- Up to 20 MTOW train weight
- Empty weight: 945kg
- Speed 0-6km/h
- Radio remote control
- Chassis width up to 690mm
- Standard lifting height: 125mm
