The BK1 is an aircraft model manufactured by KLEMM Flugzeuge. Klemm Leichtflugzeugbau, or KLEMM Light Aircraft Manufacturing, was founded by Dr. Hans Klemm in Böblingen, Germany, in 1926. Klemm’s design philosophy centered on developing light, efficient, and cost-effective civil aircraft, moving away from heavy, high-powered designs. The company produced a range of popular aircraft, including the Klemm Kl 25, which became one of the most significant light aircraft designs of the era. The manufacturer established a reputation for innovative use of wood construction and low-power engines.
A comprehensive array of height access solutions supports maintenance around the BK1. Solutions such as the Reach Deck Platform, Modular Stepover Platforms, heavy-duty Trestle Scaffold, and Ultraraise provide access across the entire airframe.
Maintenance for the Nose Section—including the windshield, cockpit, radome, antenna, and avionics—is supported by targeted platforms. For the Forward Fuselage, stands and platforms address the main entry door, cargo areas, cabin access, and forward wheel well. Landing gear (both nose and main) also benefit from these stands. Access for the Middle Fuselage and Wing Box Area facilitates work on fuel tanks and oil maintenance. Furthermore, these access tools are crucial for engine inspection in the Wing & Engine Pylon area, covering components like the engine body and fuel systems. Specialized access aids detailed maintenance across the AFT Fuselage and the Tail Section (Empennage), including the stabilizers and rudder.
