The Express Ramp offers some of the same advantages as jetbridge boarding: a gentle slope into the aircraft, a place where a number of people can stand safely, and a safe dignified boarding process for passengers with mobility impairments, as well as those without. The Express Ramp is equipped with a manually operated “crank up” style lift for adjusting the height, rather than the hydraulically operated system found on the Turboway ramp.
•• Note: This ramp can be used on all known regional aircraft from a Metro to a CRJ900
