摘要：
A ground support system (1) for an aircraft having a turbine engine, which ground support system comprises; an intermittent combustion engine (2), a generator (3) which is driven by the combustion engine to supply electrical power with a constant frequency, an electricity cable (4) to transport the electrical power to the aircraft, an air pump (5) which is driven by the combustion engine to supply pressurised air, an air duct (6) to transport the pressurised air to the aircraft, a control unit (7) to control the operation of the ground support system (1), which control unit (7) communicates with the combustion engine (2) to let the combustion engine run at a predetermined engine rotational speed, and wherein the air pump (5) is driven by the combustion engine (2) via an adjustable transmission (16) to adjust an air flow rate of the pressurised air supplied by the air pump (5), while the combustion engine (2) remains running at the predetermined engine rotational speed.
