In today's world of Hi-Tech Air Travel, aircraft maintenance has come a long way since the days of the Wright Brothers. Loss of life and aircraft due to shoddy maintenance is unforgivable, and the reputation of an airline rides high on its safety record. That's why Aircraft Maintenance Docking Systems play a critical role in helping ensure proper servicing and maintenance of all passenger aircraft types.

Aircraft Maintenance Docking Systems are specialized platforms positioned around the aircraft to allow access for maintenance personnel to all areas of the aircraft. Muhibbah Airline Support Industries (MASI) is specialized in the design and construction of a full range of docking systems.

With its innovative design, built-in state-of-the-art technology and hi-tech features combined with operational safety and efficiency, MASI's Aircraft Maintenance Docking Systems gives airlines a vital edge that helps ensure flight safety and flawless performance so that passengers, and aircrew, know their lives are not at risk where aircrafts functions are concerned.

Features:
  MASI Suspended Aircraft Maintenance Docking Systems Installation and Operation imposes no excessive load, stress and strain on the hangar structure that is within the safety limits. This is achieved by extensive use of aluminum decking and lightweight hollow sections. The system is suspended on towers fitted with end carriages that travel on runway beams fixed to the hangar roof structure, with freedom of vertical and lateral movements. Screw jacks, which facilitate precise system positioning relative to the aircraft, allow multi aircraft type maintenance to be carried out simultaneously.
   
Features:
  Fuselage Dock
Fuselage Dock is the largest dock in the Aircraft Maintenance Docking Systems. It is separated in two halves (one section on each side), given that when docking it is lowered from the roof and drop over the wings. When de-docking, the fuselage dock has to be pulled up and away from the aircraft by a couple of meters. It has 2 or 3 levels depending on the aircraft it serves. The first deck level is for access to the passenger door. Deck level 2 and 3 are used primarily for painting and washing the aircraft.
   
  Vertical Stabilizer Dock
Vertical Stabilizer Dock is incorporated with a height adjustable secondary platform directly under level 1. This platform allows service personnel access to the interface areas of the vertical fin and the rear fuselage (its height is adjustable using screw jacks and the docking is made of serrated aluminum).
