Product Insight: Full Control Over Aircraft Tows in Real-Time
Designed for precision and clarity, the GS TowList feature offers real-time updates, role-based access, and intelligent alerts to help teams manage aircraft tows safely, efficiently, and with full operational awareness.
Managing aircraft tows across complex airfield environments is no small feat. That’s why GS TowList, our latest add-on for GS RegionMaster and GS RealTime Stands, is a game-changer. This web-based enhancement transforms how towing schedules are communicated, tracked, and validated - bringing clarity, accountability, and efficiency to every movement on the apron.
Core Features at a Glance
Real-Time Visibility & Tracking
Towing activities are now fully transparent. A dynamic progress bar lets stakeholders monitor each tow’s status – Scheduled, Started, Completed - live and in color. Tow teams can update timestamps, eliminating guesswork and manual follow-ups.
Smart Alerts for Delays
If a tow hasn’t started or finished on time, the system triggers configurable alerts. This gives allocator the foresight to react fast, minimizing knock-on effects across the stand allocation and departure timeline.
Role-Based Access Across Airports
From a single-airport view for on-the-ground teams to multi-airport oversight for regional managers, access is tailored by role. Everyone sees exactly what they need to maximize focus and security.
Intuitive, Web-Based Interface
Designed with usability in mind, the interface puts essential tow details such as aircraft, positions, timing, front and center. It’s structured for speed, clarity, and mobile friendliness, making it accessible right where it’s needed.
Operational Integrity & Control
Schedule modifications stay firmly in the hands of authorized allocators, preserving the integrity of the planning data.
Key Benefits for Operations
- Operational Transparency: Everyone from stand allocators to tow drivers sees the same up-to-date picture.

This solution was designed for:
