Mercury Ground Support has played a pivotal role in the unloading of the Skydweller Aero – a solar-powered perpetual motion uncrewed aircraft

The ground support specialist used three new JBT 30i cargo loaders to unload the disassembled aircraft on its arrival from Spain at Stennis International Airport in Kiln, Mississippi.

The Skydweller Aero, celebrated for its ground-breaking solar-powered perpetual motion technology, is at Stennis for further assembly and testing. Mercury's technicians were present throughout the operation, to ensure the efficient operation of the cargo loaders and to address any issues arising during the unloading procedures.

While Mercury Ground Support provided the ground support equipment, Alliance Ground International managed the on-the-ground handling services, together ensuring a seamless transition for the disassembled components of the Skydweller Aero from the CargoLux 747 to the airport facilities.
