But your last words regarding docking adapters has set me thinking, looking into it. As per the discussion I had with above people who answered, I understood that they just press against the surface of an aircraft and to prevent the plane from damage use a rubber tubing around the joining interface. Nothing "hooking up" tech involved. But throwing straps is something I definitely do not want to do. Suction seal is I am reading up on it. Other methods Sanchises mentioned - magnetic is out. Electrostatic adhesion, hmmm.need to think | |
Oct 27, 2016 at 8:58 | comment | added | Sanchises | Please refrain from being rude - just because I try to keep my comments short does not mean I do not mean well. This answer does not answer the on-topic aviation question "How does the Aerobridge dock...?" On the other hand, this answer does not provide a good answer to the alternative (in my opinion off-topic) question either, "how two non-conformal surfaces can be "joined"", since there are other methods than throwing straps around something (most obviously, clamping; but also magnetic, electrostatic, simply 'pushing' together, etc). | |
