CA 2606691

A method for aligning one end of a passenger boarding bridge with a doorway of an aircraft includes sensing a location of a base plate of the doorway of the aircraft, using a sensor that is disposed proximate the one end of the passenger boarding bridge. A current location of the one end of the passenger boarding bridge is then determined relative to the sensed location of the base plate. Based upon a known relationship between the location of the doorway and the sensed location of the base plate, the one end of the passenger boarding bridge is moved from the current location toward the doorway of the aircraft. The method relies upon features of the aircraft itself and does not require additional passive or active targets on the aircraft.
