Scarecrow Premier 2020 – Product 2
What is Scarecrow Premier 2020?
Scarecrow Premier 2020 is a Vehicle-Mounted Bird Dispersal for Aerodromes.
It offers effective airside bird dispersal using a vehicle-mounted bio-acoustic system. Scarecrow systems have been a mainstay of airport operations vehicles for 40 years. Premier 2020 replaced the older Premier 1500, which in turn succeeded our popular Digiscare system which dates all the way back to the founding of Scarecrow Group.
It runs on 12v or 24v from the vehicle. A control unit within the cabin allows the operator to select the appropriate call without exiting the vehicle. The call is then played through roof-mounted speakers for targeted dispersal of birds at a range of up to 300m.
It is also designed to be easily upgraded to our B.I.R.D. Tab which offers both dispersal and a complete reporting solution.
Effective Airside Dispersal
It is a vehicle-mounted bio-acoustic system, designed specifically for aerodromes and programmable to each client's needs. A simple control unit within the vehicle allows you to select one of the 14 standard calls, a siren, or a pre-stored announcement through twin speakers mounted on the roof.
The unit can also be connected to a handheld remote control which provides all the same features as the front panel, allowing the main unit to be installed under a seat or elsewhere in the vehicle.

Sodos Cleaning Solutions SB-35-001 - AKC Product
AKC Aerotech Soda-Based Cleaning Machine
Introducing the AKC Aerotech Soda-Based Cleaning Machine, a cutting-edge solution for efficiently and safely cleaning airport ground lights and airport equipment. Airport ground lights are essential for ensuring the safety of aircraft during take-off, landing by keeping them free from debris and grime which is very crucial.
The AKC Aerotech cleaning machine uses a unique soda-blasting technology that is both effective and environment friendly, designed to clean glass and hard surfaces for giving clear illumination of light by removing stubborn Grime, Rubber deposit, Calcium deposit, Glycol, Salt and Paint spray without damaging the delicate surface and prism of the lights.
There is other method to clean lights by using dry-ice which is also efficient and environment friendly, but it has many challenges for the maintenance team to store dry-ice at the temperature required making it difficult and expensive.
Environmental and Operational Benefits:
-
Friendly Cleaning Solution: Soda used with air pressure for blasting is not only very effective but also saves precious time of runways. The sodium bicarbonate used is ensuring that the cleaning process is fast both for airports and workers.
-
Reduced Maintenance Costs: The gentle yet effective cleaning technique prevents damage to the ground lights, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements. By extending the lifespan of the lights, the AKC Aerotech machine offers significant long-term savings and reduces man power.
-
Minimal Downtime: The quick and efficient cleaning system ensures minimal downtime for airport ground lights, helping to maintain their full functionality and visibility without causing disruptions to airport operations.
Key Features:
-
Soda-Based Cleaning Technology: The AKC Aerotech machine (SB-35-001) utilizes an eco-friendly soda (sodium bicarbonate) cleaning system, which gently removes contaminants like stubborn grime, oil, paint, rubber and other residues from airport ground lights. Soda blasting is non-abrasive, so it preserves the integrity of the light covers and surrounding surfaces, ensuring long-term performance.
-
Precision Control: The AKC Aerotech cleaning machine comes with an adjustable nozzle for fine-tuned pressure and airflow, giving operators precise control over the cleaning process. This flexibility helps ensure that dirt and residues are thoroughly removed without damaging the lights prism or casing.
-
Enhanced Efficiency: The soda-blasting system works quickly and efficiently, saving valuable time while ensuring that the cleaning process does not take precious time of airport operations.
-
Durability and Reliability: Built from robust, weather-resistant materials, the AKC Aerotech cleaning machine is designed to withstand the harsh outdoor conditions typically found at airports. It is capable of operating in challenging environments, making it an ideal choice for regular use on runways, taxiways, and aprons.
-
User-Friendly Interface: The AKC Aerotech cleaning machine features an intuitive control panel that is easy for operators to use. With clear settings for pressure, cleaning duration, and nozzle adjustment, even operators with limited proper technical knowledge can quickly get the machine up and running.
Why is Runway Lights Cleaning Important?
The stubborn Grime, Paint spray from daily marking, Rubber deposits from aircraft and vehicles, Glycol and Salt on the prism & surface of runway lights making them ineffective to give right illumination from light to pilot affecting the aircraft's take-off and landing.
To avoid this dangerous situation its essential to regularly clean lights on the runway.
It analyses the cleaning efficiency, cleaning effects, environmental performance and operational safety performance of several cleaning methods, including manual cleaning, high pressure water jet and steam jet cleaning. Manual cleaning is inefficient and takes long hours cleaning lights. The cleaning effect of high-pressure water jet and steam jet cleaning on tyre rubber layer is not ideal for lights, while Soda blasting can wash out different kinds of dirt paint and rubber deposits of aircraft and vehicles effectively from lights.
