Wi-Fi and Crown Access stands for aircraft maintenance.

January 28, 2023/in Uncategorized/by SAS-INC

Coy Stepro stands in the work area atop a Boeing 787

This is one safe bird’s nest!

Here is a photo of the safest, most efficient Wi-Fi and Crown access stand in the industry.  That’s our General Manager Coy Stepro standing in the work space atop a Boeing 787.  Look how secure and enclosed you feel.  There’s not a gap between the safety fence and the aircraft.  Notice how the orange painted Safety Sliders fit tight to the fuselage.  You can step confidently from the platform onto the plane’s crown where the Wi-Fi antenna is located just behind Coy.

Those orange levers (to the left in the photo) are mechanisms to lock the sliders into place, offering a stable feel to technicians making repairs.

Across the top of the photo is our Jib Crane, capable of lifting 400 lbs. of tools or equipment onto the work platform or plane.   The arm of the crane moves in a 180-degree pattern, making it possible to lift from either side of the platform.   The stand also offers electric and pneumatic connections, and two LEDs mounted at the opening can throw a lot of light onto the subject.   We also should mention you can use this stand inside or outside of the hangar.

Simpson Aerospace Services (SAS) provides all types of stands for aircraft maintenance at Ground Operations and Line Maintenance facilities around the country and even beyond.  We build each one with quality and safety in mind.   We just happen to take a little more shine to this one.

Dodging a devil of a storm for Detroit installation

January 4, 2023/in Uncategorized/by SAS-INC

SAS 2027 wide body Wi-Fi stand in the hangar at Delta’s Detroit Tech Ops Center.

Christmas was coming and so was Winter Storm Elliott as the SAS team worked furiously in Detroit to install a wide-body Wi-Fi access stand for Delta Airlines.

The crew arrived Tuesday, Dec. 20, knowing the threat of a winter storm might wreak havoc on getting the job done, and getting back home for the holidays with their families.

Coy, Randy and Gary were on site, making great progress on the install when our worst fear happened.  A shipping mix-up caused the wrong work cage to be delivered, grinding progress to a halt.  But like so many times when our team rallies, they did so again.

Back at headquarters, Amber and Greg Jupin located the material, had it loaded, and Greg drove 400 miles through the early hours of Thursday morning to assure the right material arrived and the job continued on time.  In fact, we beat the install deadline.

The scramble home was just that.  Because we finished early, we were able to move our return flights to late Thursday.  We encountered a few hours delay but avoided “Cancel Friday” when huge numbers of flights were scrapped.  We all made it home for Christmas eve and Christmas day with our families. It was a job well-done, illustrating the dedication our staff has to making it work and delivering on time.

FEATURES  1.  A completely enclosed work area prevents falls. 2. Safety sliders lock into place, providing confident stepping onto the plane. 3. A 180-degree jib crane lifts tools and equipment easily. 4. Control panels at the bottom and top allow operators to make perfect placement onto a plane, protecting the aircraft. 5. Durable casters allow manual positioning and 360-degree rotation.
