Mercury Ground Support played a critical role in the seamless offloading of the Skydweller Aero—an uncrewed, solar-powered aircraft capable of perpetual flight—following its transatlantic arrival from Spain aboard a Cargolux Airlines 747. The operation took place at Stennis International Airport in Kiln, Mississippi.
This milestone shipment marks a significant step forward for the next generation of aviation technology, with Skydweller Aero pushing the boundaries of endurance flight through renewable energy. Its arrival in the U.S. highlights both the progress of the program and the importance of experienced ground-handling support to manage the complex logistics of moving cutting-edge equipment across continents.
Mercury’s team worked alongside cargo crews and project stakeholders to ensure the safe and efficient unloading of the disassembled aircraft components, which required precision, care, and industry expertise. From heavy-duty equipment to skilled personnel, Mercury once again demonstrated why it’s a trusted partner for advanced aerospace operations.
Mercury GSE will exhibit at MRO Americas 2025 this April in Orlando at Booth 3903, showcasing its ground support equipment solutions for the MRO, airline, and air cargo sectors. The company will highlight its portfolio of pushback tractors, stairs, GPUs, air start units, and its expertise in rentals, leasing, and sales, supported by nationwide service, experienced teams, and 24/7 customer support.
