Proposed Rename

I really like this article, but having it here makes it difficult to begin an article on military ground support equipment. I propose that this article be renamed to Ground support equipment (commercial) or Ground support equipment (airport), so that an article for Ground support equipment (military) would be possible. 70.250.178.31 (talk) 05:18, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- If there is enough material, why not just create Ground support equipment (military)? Vegaswikian (talk) 06:03, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Start cart

Is a "start cart" the same thing as an air starter? If so, can we include the term? 70.247.169.197 (talk) 00:10, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Based on the context of where you added the link I think that it refers more to the Ground support equipment#Ground power units or Auxiliary power unit. Enter CBW, waits for audience applause, not a sausage. 04:42, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I could be wrong, but that was my best guess. I think I linked some others too, BTW. I'm being BOLD, and thought the linking to this article would be the most expedient solution. 70.247.169.197 (talk) 04:50, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, linking to this article looks like the right thing. Enter CBW, waits for audience applause, not a sausage. 08:53, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect

Can someone please create a redirect from support equipment to this article? 70.247.162.84 (talk) 20:15, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps that should be a disambiguation page instead. - Rod57 (talk) 23:33, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

missing information

I am a GSE mechanic and somewhat of an analyst, as such, I must say that this article definitely needs expansion as it is certainly not all encompassing. There is a plethora of GSE gear in existence, most of which isn't included in the article.

I agree that the article needs improvement. Since you say you work in the field, please contribute some of your specialized knowledge to the effort. In other words, WP:SOFIXIT. Reify-tech (talk) 05:17, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am an aerospace engineer and I believe the ground air conditioning unit needs to be added — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.223.230.152 (talk) 16:32, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Air cart should be added

Emergency

What about emergency response equipment? 41.69.52.21 (talk) 08:37, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

what about snowplows? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.53.208.113 (talk) 18:04, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What about GSE at rocket launch complexes

What about GSE at rocket launch complexes - usually specific to each type of rocket - eg Saturn V, Atlas-V, ..., Should we expand this article or start another, or just refer to something ? (Ground segment seems more oriented to ground stations of a space based system.) For GSE at launch sites eg Exploration Ground Systems for Space Launch System. Maybe cover it in Launch pad/complex, and have a hatnote here ? - Rod57 (talk) 23:32, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Useless reference

In Ground support equipment#Dollies the reference to Dollies is quite meaningless. Peter Horn User talk 21:23, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
