Ground support equipment (GSE) is typically made for aircrafts, aerospace companies, airlines, and airports. Ground support equipment (GSE) is made to service airplanes and jets between flights. Ground support equipment generally functions as loading operations, aircraft towing, and ground power operations.

Baggage carts have a brake system which stars the wheels from moving when the rod is not attached to the tug. The trolley a.k.a. Dolly is used to transport loads placed in containers and pallets. Trolleys have built-in rollers for containers and pallets to roll on for easier transportation. The brake system stops the dollies from moving when the towbar of the trolley is raised 90°. Trolleys made for containers have a revolving back to make the containers turned into the direction of loading on aircraft’s.
