PlaneSkate, a subsidiary of Disabled Aircraft Tools, LLC, provides aircraft recovery equipment designed to help airports move disabled aircraft and reopen runways quickly. Based in Buffalo, Minnesota, the company has served the aviation market since 2014. Its equipment is intended to simplify recovery compared with traditional methods that may require jacks, tire removal, specialist assistance, and extended runway closures.
The PlaneSkate product range includes the 15K, 70K, and 100K models, covering aircraft up to their respective gross-weight limits, as well as military configurations and a C-130 kit. The equipment uses a heavy-duty caster array and is designed for use on surfaces including snow, ice, gravel, grass, and uneven tarmac. PlaneSkate says trained airport ground crews can load an aircraft without specialist operators or additional tools, with runway clearance typically taking under 17 minutes when equipment and trained staff are on site.
The company helps airports select equipment for their fleets and provides training documentation and optional on-site instruction.
