Aircraft Tow Paths

Plan aircraft tow paths through your hangar and review each move before towing. Routes account for aircraft positions, dimensions, and hangar obstacles in the plan.

Potential Annual Labor Savings: $30,660

Estimated ROI using a 40,000 sq. ft. hangar, 5% utilization boost, $3.50/sq. ft. monthly tenant rate, 4 hours spent stacking per day, $35 per labor hour, and 3 crew members.

Potential to reclaim ~876 labor hours per year (~2.4 labor hours per day) spent stacking and unburying aircraft, under these assumptions.

Could reduce new-hire training time with clear, repeatable tow-path guidance. The impact on training time has not yet been measured.

Key Features

Advanced tow-path generation for maximum safety and efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Path Planning and how it fits into your operation.

Path planning considers all aircraft positions during path planning, determining if other aircraft need to be moved and notifying the user as needed.
A generated path reflects the positions and obstacles used in the plan. If conditions change, the route needs to be reviewed before proceeding. Live obstacle alerts are part of hangar rash prevention, a separate capability currently in development.
Yes. The system uses aircraft-specific dimensions to calculate clearances. We maintain a growing database of aircraft types and can add custom profiles for your fleet.
Auto-Stack plans where aircraft should be placed. Tow Paths plans how to move them into those positions, including moves needed to clear the way.
Yes. Operators can view the planned tow path on a tablet for visual guidance. Live collision alerts and clearance warnings are part of the separate hangar rash prevention capability, currently in development.
