Ground Handling Database for MSFS: The Ultimate Guide

Welcome to the Ground Handling Database, a specialized tool designed for users of Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020 & 2024) and GSX Pro (Ground Services X). This utility solves a common problem for flight simmers: knowing which ground handling operator to select upon arrival at an airport.

Why is this tool necessary?

In GSX Pro, when you request deboarding or pushback, you are often presented with a menu of multiple handling agents (e.g., Swissport, Menzies, Aviator, Celebi). Choosing a random one breaks the realism.

In the real world, airlines have specific contracts. For example:

• Lufthansa at Frankfurt is handled by Fraport or Lufthansa LEOS.
• SAS in Scandinavia is typically handled by SGH (SAS Ground Handling).
• Ryanair often uses their own internal handling or specific low-cost partners.

This database aggregates thousands of these real-world contracts so you can simulate 100% realism.

How to use the Database

1. Search by Airport: Enter the ICAO/IATA code (e.g., ENGM) or the airport name.
2. Filter by Airline: Enter your airline code (e.g., SAS or SK).
3. Get the Result: The tool will display the correct handling operator to select in the GSX menu.

Data Accuracy and Updates

The data is updated regularly. While we strive for 100% accuracy, contracts in the aviation industry change frequently. If you find an error, please join our community on Discord to report it, or use the implemented "[Report Error]" feature.
