  • Appendix A: Gsemodel Operating Instructions
    APPENDIX A GSEMODEL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS GSEMODEL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Introduction GSEModel is a personal computer spreadsheet-based analysis tool that has been developed to quantify emission benefits and calculate the cost-effectiveness of converting existing airport ground support equipment (GSE) to cleaner-burning fuels and engine technologies. The model has been developed as a planning tool for use by metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), airports, and other agencies interested in evaluating potential emission benefits and cost savings resulting from available GSE emission control technologies. It has been designed with a mouse-enabled graphical user interface to make it simple and easy to use. The GSEModel tool is based upon the “best practice” methodologies and information presented earlier in the body of this report. It has been designed to utilize local (i.e., airport-specific) GSE usage and cost information coupled with best-available emission factor data to perform the following functions using a consistent methodology: & Estimate current and alternative technology GSE emissions by individual equipment category (e.g., aircraft pushback tractors, baggage tugs, cargo loaders, etc.); & Compute the emission benefits of the available alternative technologies; & Quantify the incremental capital, operating, and life-cycle costs of converting GSE units to these alternative technologies; and & Calculate and compare the cost-effectiveness (cost per unit emissions reduced, e.g., $/ton) of these alternative technologies for each equipment category under airport-specific operating and usage conditions. Nevertheless, as with any analysis tool, the results computed by the model retain the inherent uncertainties of the data and estimates upon which they are based. As described in the operating instructions that follow, the model provides “default” values for a number of inputs to enable the user to quickly develop GSE emission reduction and cost- effectiveness estimates associated with alternative technologies.

This paper reports the effort to determine the benefits of replacing gasoline and diesel-fueled internal combustion engine ground support equipment (ICE GSE) with electric ground support equipment (eGSE). The model of environment-friendly aircraft handling will be based on the examination of cost- effectiveness and reduction of greenhouse gases in the case of replacing fossil-fueled GSE with cleaner, more efficient electric-powered alternatives. In comparison with the current procedures of Ground Handling, the authors choose Zagreb Airport Ltd. as the representative airport for building Case Study and Airbus A319/A320 as the reference aircraft for calculation of greenhouse gases emission during handling process. The calculation method will be based on real time duration of processes performed by each piece of GSE during aircraft handling procedure. The usage of the model will be tested on aircraft handling for two airline business models: network and low cost.

  • AC 150/5220-21C, Aircraft Boarding Equipment, 29 June 2012
    Advisory U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Circular Administration Subject: Aircraft Boarding Equipment Date: 6/29/2012 AC No: 150/5220-21C Initiated by: AAS-100 Change: 1. PURPOSE. This advisory circular (AC) contains the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA’s) performance standards, specifications, and recommendations for the design, manufacture, testing and maintenance of equipment used in the boarding of airline passengers. 2. CANCELLATION. This AC cancels AC 150/5220-21B, Guide Specification for Devices Used to Board Airline Passengers with Mobility Impairments, dated March 17, 2000. 3. SCOPE. This AC covers the four most common pieces of equipment used to board aircraft: a. Passenger boarding bridges (PBBs) that are entered from the passenger terminal boarding area, b. Ramps that are moved into place to allow boarding from the airport apron, c. Lifts to vertically transport passengers from the airport apron to the door of the aircraft, and d. Aircraft boarding chairs used to transfer passengers from their wheelchair or other apparatus to their seat in the aircraft cabin. The physical area covered in this AC is that which is bounded by the door of the passenger terminal area, on one end, to the door of the aircraft, on the other end. Although this AC refers only to aircraft boarding (enplaning), all references apply equally to disembarking (deplaning) with the described procedures occurring in reverse order. Chapters 3-5 for this AC are primarily based on the performance standards, specifications, and recommendations contained in the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) 1247, General Requirements for Aerospace Ground Support Equipment (Motorized and Non-motorized), U.S.

  • ACRP Problem Statement No. 13-10-11 Recommended Allocation:
    ACRP Problem Statement No. 13-10-11 Recommended Allocation: -- Airport Jet-Way Maintenance and Operation Impact on Aircraft ECS ACRP Staff Comments: The term, "ECS" stands for Environmental Control Systems, and was not defined in the problem statement. TRB Aviation Group Committees Comments: AIRCRAFT/AIRPORT COMPATIBILITY: Jetways, APUs, and preconditioned air systems are separate pieces of equipment, and may be owned by individuals as opposed to airports. Perhaps this area of study is best left to the vendors, although tracking of O&M could be an element of overall airport asset management. AVIATION SECURITY AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT: The research problem points to work already done in this area with regard to ASHRAE standards and FAA's lack of regulation in this area. The concern seems to be largely regulatory in nature and not specifically a research concern. It remains unclear if there is a need to pursue new standards given that general assessment of the current situation is that existing standards are not followed. Additional thought for consideration: This study addresses conditioned air (hot/cold) supplied to airline aircraft parked at a jetway [aka passenger loading bridge; aka jet bridge]. The air handler affixed to the loading bridge provides the conditioned air to the aircraft via 12”- to 18”-diameter flexible pipe/duct which is manually attached by ground crew to the parked aircraft. Ownership of loading bridges at US airports is 5/6th airport and 1/6th airline (proposer’s figures). The proposer is asking to survey the US to determine the condition and dedicated maintenance of all of these air handler units, associated parts, and the loading bridges themselves.

Safety is paramount when operating equipment within Airport ramp areas. The mixture of aircraft, vehicles, fueling equipment, tugs/carts, and numerous other types of ramp equipment can present a serious safety problem unless specific procedures are followed and enforced. Constant alertness and an absolute awareness of ramp safety rules must be maintained. In order to assure that employees operating vehicles or other types of mobile equipment on the ramp are familiar with safe operating rules, the following safety rules are presented.
