Course Overview
Debogging aircraft through the use of textile ropes and/or special aircraft fittings is an exercise that involves extremely large forces and heavy loads.
A number of safety concerns must be addressed before any major debogging exercise can be implemented. Precaution and care are essential to developing the right atmosphere for such an implementation.
This seminar will examine the general aircraft towing operation called debogging and show you how to proceed in an orderly and safe manner to ensure a timely and successful debogging operation.
