They are lightweight, easy to move, and are adjustable in height which allows them to be used on various aircraft. These stands provide a large work platform for added safety and will be used in all the training programs for maintenance technicians. Technicians from around the world train in the support of Airbus Helicopters at this facility.
“Airbus Helicopters previously had an old set of platforms that became outdated as OSHA rules and SAFETY guidelines have improved over the years. The Airbus team was keen on staying current with the highest safety stands so they sought S.A.F.E. to develop stands that could provide safe access to all areas of the aircraft and improve the technician’s efficiency through ergonomics,” said Johnny Buscema, S.A.F.E.

Our custom design provides the instructor and the student with a stand that improves safety which allows the student to concentrate on the training. This support equipment enhances the outstanding maintenance training provided to Airbus customers. We have provided similar support equipment for a wide range of helicopters and airplanes in both the civilian and military sector.”
