<p>One end of a passenger bridge (1) or a goods-handling device of mobile type can be expediently and securely connected to a door (20) on a craft (21), especially an aircraft, by determining the position of the door in relation to a reference point on the craft and storing it in a computer system. Furthermore, the absolute position of the door when the craft has come to a halt and the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device is to be connected, is determined by measuring the distance from a reference point (18) on the ground to the craft. Finally, the computer system (7, 16) guides the passenger bridge to the door of the craft, the position of the end of the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device being determined during the guiding operation and inputted into the computer system. To further shorten the connection time, the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device is advantageously guided to an initial position of connection in the vicinity of the craft, in which position the end of the passenger bridge or the goods-handling device is aligned with the expected position of the door and disposed at a small distance therefrom, before the craft has come to a halt.</p> |
