Mototok offers a full range of fully-electric, towbarless, and remote-controlled aircraft tugs for almost all tasks in airport operations and almost every aircraft type in the aviation industry. Our different model series are specifically designed for different aircraft types and application areas. In this guide, we offer an overview of which Mototok aircraft tug is compatible with your aircraft.
Faster A320/B737 turnarounds with electric towbarless tugs come down to five key questions ground handling managers ask before making the switch. Here are the answers:
Aircraft ground handling operations face persistent safety challenges that directly impact operational costs and aircraft availability. Here are a five efficiency components to focus in on:
From conventional tractors with a tow bar, via towbarless sit down tugs or towbarless tugs with a rotary table, to towbarless, remote-controlled tugs, there is a whole variety of different tug systems for aircraft towing available. How, then, do you choose the right aircraft tug for your operations and what are the advantages of electric, towbarless, and remote-controlled tugs? Learn more in our guide to selecting the right towing tools for efficient and safe aircraft handling.
As sustainability is increasingly becoming a focus in the aviation industry, the transition towards sustainable aviation is gaining momentum. Electric ground support equipment (eGSE) plays a vital role in this transition and 2026 might, in fact, likely be a turning point for ground handling operations. Explore with us some key trends in the aviation industry’s ground handling practices to look for in 2026.
Efficient and smooth ground handling operations are key to efficient aviation. In this guide, we explore how airports can optimize their ground handling to improve aircraft safety. Learn more on how remote-controlled tugs, as compared to traditional ground handling techniques, enhance aircraft safety using advanced ground handling technologies.
The transition to ‘green airports’ is an essential step in achieving sustainable aviation and meeting the industry’s objective of net zero emissions by 2050. Electrification program grants for tenants offered by airport authorities as well as by federal and international funding programs support airports in transitioning to environmentally-friendly operations and infrastructure. We provide a brief overview of some electrification program grants available and what these grants look like.
With the artificial intelligence revolution increasingly gaining momentum, AI is set to deeply transform most, if not all, industries, including all sectors of aviation. How is the AI revolution currently shaping the future of the aviation industry? Explore with us some of the key innovations in aviation that are driven by artificial intelligence technologies.
The decision to purchase your own aircraft, whether for personal or commercial use, is a huge one and should, of course, not be taken lightly. There are many variables to consider in the decision making process. But there is also always the option of aircraft leasing. Much like car leasing, aircraft leasing is not for every operator but for some operators, it does make more sense than purchasing.
