Axel Hauner President Telair is the world’s only supplier of powered on-board cargo handling systems for both wide- and narrow-body aircraft. We have systems to meet the needs of nearly every airframe in service today. Wide-Body Systems T elair is the leading innovator of powered and mechanical cargo loading systems and components for commercial and militarywide-body aircraft. Our components are among the lightest on-board cargo handling products avail- able today. Many come pre-installed in trays for faster installation. All compo- nents are positioned above floor, which translates to safe and easy maintenance. One Telair system facilitates the quick change of a military aircraft from one configuration to another. And our newest PDUs employ “smart” technology that senses when to rise and lower to drive ULDs and pallets, and run weight as additional cargo is loaded or only when needed. removed at the door by a second handler.
