When considering climate, Kaya says: "In
some places, the environment temperature is
around desired values for keeping the food and
drinks cool during most of the year, only an
insulated van body is enough. But in places
where the temperature is around 20-25 degrees
celsius above most of the year, in this case a
cooling unit must be used with an insulated
van body to keep food and drinks cool. The
thickness of the panels varies according to
the environmental conditions and operational
requirement and customer demand as well.
"When working directly with people in
the aviation sector, one of the most important things we focus on is safety," adds Kaya.
"Both safety for people and the process itself.
Beside the safety in construction and stabilization, there are many features on the catering
truck for safe operations, such as lock valves,
emergency push buttons and inter-lock system. Since the beginning of 2019, according to
AHM913, Aircraft Safe Approaching System
has started to be implemented in our catering
trucks, as well as our related products, which
control the truck speed and distance to aircraft
to meet 'no-touch policy.'"

of catering trucks, Logan Smith, director of
sales and marketing for Smith Transportation Equipment, says that they offer multiple

regional jet; MH16x16, narrow body; and
MH18x21, wide body. The biggest distinctions
between the models are the servicing heights
and lifting capacities," says Smith. "Ultimately,
the van body height and width are pretty consistent. The variance is in the overall length.
We offer 11', 12', 14', 16', 18', 21', 22' and 24' boxes."
Power
Smith agrees that, when choosing a catering
truck, taking into account the size of the aircraft being served is paramount. But he says
that there's more that goes into shopping for
trucks than just that.
"Spec'ing a catering truck is akin to selecting a manufacturer. We are a prime manufacturer, meaning we manufacture all of our
major assemblies, such as the scissor mechanism, stabilizers, van body, forward platform,
etc. Such capabilities enable the conformity to
