APPARATUS FOR REMOVING SNOW AND AIRCRAFT DE-ICING LIQUIDS FROM RUNWAY SURFACES

摘要

Apparatus for removing snow and aircraft de-icing liquids from runway surfaces includes a trailer on which is mounted equipment for removing snow and de-icing fluid from runway surfaces. The trailer can use a fifth-wheel configuration. Advantages of the trailer include the ability to use a driving unit for other purposes when the trailer is not needed, and the equipment can be placed relatively close to the ground so that the vacuum does not need to be as strong as with other similar devices.
