Forward only ... I was listening to one radio station program this morning ... The majority of commercial aeroplanes are designed to go forward only, there's no reverse gear. Since they can't always land or park in positions to go forward afterwards, push-back tractors are used to reposition them so they can do what they're designed to do - go forward. I also believe human beings are designed to go forward only. But alas, as humans we're far from perfect! So from time to time we err, and that's normal.The challenge is how quickly are we repositioned so we can keep going forward, as we should? And most importantly, who/what is your push-back tractor? #ForwardOnly

I'm thrilled to share my insights from a recent #AviationPros article highlighting the transformative impact of electric tow tractors on ground support operations. ✈️ In the aviation industry, efficiency and sustainability are key, and electric tow tractors are leading the charge toward greener, more streamlined operations. By replacing traditional internal combustion engine models with electric counterparts like Tiger Li-Ion tow tractors, airports are not only reducing carbon footprints but also enhancing operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Key benefits highlighted in the article include: 🔋 Environmental Sustainability: Electric tow tractors significantly reduce emissions and noise pollution, aligning with aviation’s environmental sustainability goals. 🚀 Operational Efficiency: Improved reliability and lower maintenance costs contribute to smoother operations. 💡 Technological Safety Advancements: Integration of smart technologies such as Tiger’s patent-pending anti-rollover system and programmable top speed improves safety. As we move toward a more sustainable future, innovations like electric tow tractors are paving the way for cleaner, greener aviation operations worldwide. 🌍 Let's continue to embrace technology and sustainability in aviation, driving positive change and setting new standards for ground support excellence!

Want traction without damaging your grass? AMP features a patented ground drive and steering system that not only provides low impact, gentle touch to your grass, but it does so in a wide array of mowing conditions. AMP mows perfectly straight lines on soft grass, slopes, or wet conditions with ease. AMP's four synchronized electric drive motors intelligently provide unprecedented traction control. Each rear wheel is independently steered to a precise angle to eliminate tire scrubbing. This provides the low impact and maneuverability of a three-wheeled machine, but with the stability and traction of a four-wheeled machine. Only the FireFly AMP has this unique patented drive and steering system. The result is a mowing robot that has unmatched mowing performance in the most difficult conditions. #turfmanagement #golfcoursemanagement #mowingtechnology #AMPmower #electricmower #robotmower #autonomous #AEV #traction #fireflymower

Planting and spraying season is in full swing, and that means lots of tractors, planters and sprayers are on the roads. Here are some tips to keep yourselves and others safe: ✅ Stay alert and slow down when you're approaching machinery. Agricultural equipment moves a lot slower than regular traffic, so even if you're following the speed limit, you might approach the equipment more quickly than you expect. ✅ Leave lots of space around the equipment. This can help keep you safe from any debris that might come from the machinery, and it can help you determine when it's safe to pass. ✅ Only pass when it's safe to do so, and when you can see the operator of the machine. (If you can't see them, they can't see you!) When passing, follow the same rules of the road that apply when you pass other vehicles - never pass over a solid centre line, or on a hill or curve in the road. For more information, check out resources from the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association. https://lnkd.in/eZKgqTSv

First episode with real “content” - probably the most common conversation we have with fleets is when to use off road vs DOT-compliant units. Did you know - DOT units have grown from about 20% of production to around 90% in just a few short years - find out why!

@Lorenzo Venditti works as a Product Manager at TTControl. In this video, he explains what makes working on solutions in the off-highway market special and how he gets along with his team. He even lets us know what his favorite off-highway vehicle is. 🚒🚜 How about you? Do you prefer snow groomers? Firefighting vehicles? Tractors? Or something completely different? 🤔 #mindgrowing

𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧: 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐥𝐥-𝐓𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐕𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐥𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 The All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) market encompasses the manufacturing, distribution, and utilization of rugged off-road vehicles designed for traversing diverse terrain types. These vehicles, also known as quad bikes or quadricycles, typically feature robust suspension systems, low-pressure tires, and powerful engines, enabling them to navigate through rough terrain such as mud, sand, gravel, and snow with ease. ATVs find applications across various industries and recreational activities, including agriculture, forestry, construction, military, hunting, sports, and leisure. In agricultural settings, ATVs are utilized for tasks such as crop spraying, towing, and transporting equipment across farms. 🔵𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬 🔸Polaris Inc. 🔸American Honda Motor Company, Inc. 🔸BRP 🔸Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA. 🔸CFMOTO 🔸Kawasaki Robotics 🔸KYMCO UK #ATV #OffroadAdventure #OutdoorSports #ATVRiding #4x4 #OffroadLife #ATVTrail #AdventureTime #ExploreOutdoors #ATVLife #ATVCommunity #TrailRiding #OutdoorEnthusiast #OffroadExperience #ATVAdventure #ExploreNature #ExtremeSports #ATVFun #OffroadExploration #ATVNation
