About Airport Maintenance




Airport Maintenance Services Pty Ltd (AMS), headed by Brian Hawkins and based at Launceston Airport, Tasmania, has developed and is increasing markets for specialized airport ground equipment.

The lift for disabled passengers , marketed as the DPL 99, comes in three models:-

  • DPL 99A is suitable for use on aircraft up to the size of the BAE 146 jet.
  • DPL 99E is suitable for use on aircraft up to the size of the Boeing 737.
  • DPL 99AH is suitable for use on aircraft up to the size of the Airbus A320.

Boarding stairs suit many types of aircraft including push-in adjustable type stairs to suit both Boeing 737 and Airbus 320 front and rear door operations.

The Modular Walkways can be easily installed on a permanent or temporary basis for passenger transition between aircraft and the terminal complex.

Our equipment is in use at airports around Australia, and in the United States.

Brian Hawkins began AMS 10 years ago, having worked for the former Department of Civil Aviation.

The company now employs eight people directly and many more indirectly across northern Tasmania through the manufacture of components.
