AIRCRAFT TOW OBSTACLE ALERTING AND INDICATION & METHOD FOR RECORDING AND NOTIFICATION OF PARKED AIRCRAFT DAMAGE

摘要

The disclosed embodiments relate to methods and systems for avoiding a collision between an aircraft and an obstacle when the aircraft is being moved on a ground surface via a ground vehicle. When a processor onboard the aircraft determines that the obstacle is located in proximity to the aircraft, the processor generates a warning generator signal, which causes an apparatus to communicate a warning signal that is perceptible to an operator of the ground vehicle to warn the operator of the obstacle.
