Supporting a Legacy: Mercury GSE Powers Qantas at LAX

Mercury GSE supports Qantas’ long-standing service at LAX with the reliable TLD GPU-418—engineered for fuel efficiency, low noise, and fast response. Backed by 24/7 support and preventative maintenance, our team ensures Qantas operations stay on schedule. Reliable GSE, built for legacy carriers.

Did you know that Qantas has been flying into Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) since 1954? That’s over 70 years of continuous service! Today, they continue operating daily flights between Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane to LAX, primarily with Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners and occasionally Airbus A380s during peak demand.

Mercury GSE is proud to support Qantas’ legacy by supplying essential ground support equipment, including the TLD GPU-418—a high-efficiency generator optimized at 1846 RPM for improved fuel efficiency, reduced noise levels, and rapid transient response.

What stands behind the unit is our unwavering commitment to reducing downtime with preventative maintenance, 24/7 breakdown support, and a dedicated support team.

This isn’t a trend for us that we may have picked up from others in the industry—it’s a promise. Because GSE never sleeps... and neither do we.
