The Main Equipment Parts Hauled When Shipping An Aircraft
Airplanes are made up of five main parts. They include:
Fuselage Transport
Also known as the body of an airplane, a fuselage is a hollow tube that holds passengers and/or cargo.
Wings Shipping
An obvious part of an aircraft, the wings are essential to the flight of an airplane. These are often detached for transport.
Empennage Hauling
Or the tail of an airplane. The two main components are the elevator, which helps with up and down movement, along with the rudder, which steers from left to right. Both components help with the overall stability of an aircraft.
Power Plant Transport
This is the combination of the engine and propeller. These two main components work together for power and thrust.
Landing Gear Shipping
It includes the wheels and shock absorbers for takeoff and landing of an airplane.
