- Nota adicional1
- Disabled aircraft that interfere with normal activity of an aerodrome require prompt removal actions. The travelling public, other aircraft operators, the aerodrome operator and the operator of the incident aircraft are all affected to varying degrees. In addition, runway and taxiway closures can substantially reduce the number of arrivals and departures and restrict movement around the aerodrome, resulting in loss of revenue to the airport as well as to the aircraft operator.
- Nota adicional2
- There are three general terms used in the removal of disabled aircraft: aircraft debogging, aircraft recovery and aircraft salvage. These terms are defined as follows: a) Aircraft debogging. The removal of an aircraft from a runway or taxiway excursion where the aircraft has become bogged down but has relatively little or no damage is considered a “debogg”. b) Aircraft recovery. Any aircraft that is unable to move under its own power or through the normal use of an appropriate tow tractor and tow bar will be considered an “aircraft recovery”, examples are: — one or more landing gear off the hard surface of a runway, taxiway or apron; — aircraft bogged down in mud or snow; — one or more landing gear collapsed or damaged; — an aircraft that is considered to be economically repairable; and c) Aircraft salvage. An accident or incident in which the aircraft sustains substantial damage and the insurer considers the hull a constructive loss will be considered “aircraft salvage”.
- Contexto
- If the aircraft, parts, or controls must be moved because they directly present a hazard to human life, efforts should be made to record their original condition, positions, and locations, and due care should be afforded to preserve all physical evidence. If circumstances permit, photographs should be taken showing the location and position of all major components marked on the ground. Details on removal of disabled aircraft can be found in the Airport Services Manual (Doc 9137), Part 5 — Removal of Disabled Aircraft.
