According to a report from Heavy Lift & Project Forwarding International (HLPFI) magazine an oversized second-hand airport equipment and machinery has been transported from the UK to Sierra Leone by ALS operations team in Hull.

HLPFI magazine is a business to business publication dedicated to the heavy lift and project cargo sector.

The report stated that the cargoes were destined for a new airport that is under construction in Sierra Leone, adding that the equipment was moved from UK airports and included a loader, two wide-body pushback vehicles, two containers with a total of 16 dollies, and a two bar.

“Various trailers were required to move the equipment to a UK port ahead of shipping to Sierra Leone. Due to low ground clearance a crane was organised for the handling of the loader.” It added.

“For the 16 dollies, ALS was responsible for collecting the items and loading them into 40 ft containers.” It concluded
