APPLICATION

When containers are dispersed around an airport they can be an untidy feature, and, unsecured, they are subject to the unpredictable wind conditions of an open airport environment.  This is a hazard which endangers not only aircraft but also airport personnel with potentially disastrous consequences.

As a solution to these problems Viking have designed a container storage system which MAXIMISES your STORAGE SPACE and keeps containers safely under control.

Designed to accept and securely retain LD1 and LD3 containers as standard, LD2 and AKH containers can also be accommodated. Footprint of 10.6m x 15m (as illustrated) stores 96 ULD.

The system can be modified to accept most other types of container if specified at the design stage, and the footprint shape can be altered to suit available space in most instances.

Modular design allows the storage area to be extended as required, or with an airport environment which is ever changing to meet the needs of expansion with resultant alterations to apron layouts, the whole system is capable of being dismantled and relocated.

Everything has been designed to provide a simple, safe, and speedy operation by ONE MAN.
