A system for scanning or inspecting an aircraft or spacecraft surface. A ground vehicle has a first inspection device, a hovering platform has a second inspection device. The first inspection device is on a first arm of the ground vehicle. The ground vehicle comprises a vertical pole and a transverse holding element extends therefrom. The hovering platform is electrically connected to the ground vehicle through a cable for transferring electrical power and/or data to the hovering platform. The vertical pole and/or transverse holding element carry the cable. The hovering platform is flexibly held on the vertical pole and/or the transverse holding element through the cable or an additional component. The inspection devices determine a characteristic of the surface and identify points of shape deviation by comparison with an intended characteristic. The system successively inspects the surface through the inspection devices being arranged in different heights at the same time.
