Once secured, the pilot may disembark and use the the ladder built into the grapplers to reach the catwalk above the maintenance racks, exiting the hangar through one of four small personal airlocks.
If the TIE requires maintenance, repairs or needs to be restocked, the grapplers place it into one of the 6 available maintenance racks. Once there, a trolley running on two top-mounted rails picks it up and shoves it into the next free launch rack spot (from back to front). If it's airworthy the grapplers move it to the aft-facing section of the hangar and place it into the carrier hooks of a large elevator which transports them one deck lower. Once in position, the clamps are shut to secure the TIE, and move it into its destined area. Using tractor beams, they maneuver the TIE into the docking clamps. The last phase of the landing sequence is done by the two recovery grapplers inside the hangar.
