Abstract: A system comprising a trolley which comprises a platform and wheels attached beneath the platform, an air intake of an aircraft engine, where the air intake rests on the platform so as to have its narrowest part at the top and its widest part at the bottom, and an inflatable protection item in the form of a closed envelope which is placed around the widest part of the air intake. A system of this kind makes it possible to protect the air intake from collisions that it might experience during movement of the trolley, and to increase safety by avoiding collisions between operators and the air intake.
