Lifts For Outlying Scottish Airports

A TOTAL of 44 Stertil Koni Earthlift wireless mobile column vehicle lifts are now used at 11 sites operated by Highlands and Islands Airports Ltd (HIAL), a private limited company responsible for regional airports located at Barra, Benbecula, Campbeltown, Dundee, Inverness, Islay, Kirkwall, Stornoway, Sumburgh, Tiree and Wick John O’Groats.
Working with its stakeholders, it is committed to supporting the essential socio-economic role of aviation in Scotland by maintaining and developing its airports and the connections they provide for some of the country’s remote communities, providing lifeline and emergency services and regional travel hubs.
The heavy duty Earthlifts are used to raise fire appliances, water tenders, trucks, tractors, vans and cars. The flexibility allows the 44 lifts to be used in different configurations within HIAL’s workshops. Typically, the equipment is used in sets of six or four columns, depending on the weight and wheelbase of the vehicles.
