ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for washing an airplane has a rectangular underground pit recessed below the ground surface, a turn table located at one end of the pit and rotatable at the same level as the ground surface, an upper washing unit for washing the upper side of the airplane and a lower washing unit for washing the lower side of the air plane. The upper washing unit has a carrier having a width and a height large enough to clear the tail wings of the airplane and is movable in the longitudinal direction of the pit, while the lower washing unit has a carrier which is movable within the pit in the longitudinal direction of the latter at a level substantially equal to the bottom of the pit. Each washing unit has washing means such as a brush movable on the carrier. The washing means of the lower washing unit is accessible to the lower side of the airplane through openings formed in the turn table.
