The invention relates to an automatic system for manoeuvring aircraft on the ground, based on driverless towing vehicles, (hereafter AGTV's), which can independently hold the undercarriage of the aircraft. In said system the AGTVs pull the aircraft from transfer areas on the taxiways of the runways to the stand and vice versa, allowing the propulsion systems of the aircraft to remain switched off during the taxiing process. The driverless AGTVs receive their driving jobs from a computer-aided guidance and management system which controls the AGTV fleet in a collision- and conflict-free manner. |
