Pushback Procedure overhaul?

(1/4) > >>

Dreamliner787:
As I saw you are planning to overhaul the pushback procedure, would it be possible to make it faster?
I filmed a pushback back in summer and GSX is really slow compared to it:
And you could also place the guy that handles the comms and walks besides the aircraft onto the pushback vehicle:
On some airports the pushbacktruck operator does everything by himself:

virtuali:
The pushback speed is tuned with a realistic wingwalker speed so, most likely, that pushback you filmed didn't had any wingwalkers, since it really looked too fast for a walking speed.

It's already like that, with vehicles that do have a standing platform, because the guys comes over it. And, we are assuming he IS doing everything by himself. In this case, acting as comm operator and wingwalker so, he cannot be on the vehicle while he's wingwalking.

HeadlessHershel:
Would it be possible, down the road, to maybe make the "wingwalker" get back in pushback after inserting tow pin. He wouldn't be technically wing walking, but you could increase pushback speed and have him get out to disconnect tow pin after pushback.

So people will then ask what's happened to the wingwalker.

Hightower:
I would like to see pushback revised. It works, but not alot of control.   Something like the new pushback plugin for X-plane would be great.
