Would’ve been nice for you to show how you go from the stop to hold position before you indicate chocks in and where applicable (gateway specific) stairs up. Once we block an aircraft in, we hold the stop sign until nose gear chocks are in, then drop to the hold position while aircraft maintenance attaches the GPU, shutdown is complete, and then the ground crew chocks the mains and puts the stairs on.

Putting chocks in without giving the signal for and confirming brake are applied is asking for an accident.

Do the Air Force Marshals use the same signals for fighter pilots?... Or are those signals just enhanced creative versions of the ones that you are showing here? Thnx

Great video. Why does marshaller have to tell pilot WHEN and what engine to start? Thank you.

[@cootmaster]

some planes have 4 engines like 2 under each wing or 2 engines, it MATTERS the CORRECT order to start

[@gregorydahl]

Notice no " chocks removed" signal ?

[@cootmaster]

REMOVE is the opposite PULL LEFT RIGHT INSERT PUSH TOGETHER
