This is so awesome dude, loving this series!
4:25 that you? ;)
@@maxi14437 last I checked cap lived in Ottawa soz
Yall stupid lol haha
Yo thanks man!!
Great push! As a captain, you don't know how many times I get drivers that don't understand to push gently. We appreciate smooth pushes like this!
Will do my best
thats what i tell to my colleages...i die a little inside everytime i hear the towbar crack noises due to high speed, sudden turns and hard braking
So your fine with fake walk around! See if you respect the safety of the passengers, rampers and the crew! Please let people what airlines you fly for!
@@davidsmiths5471 ....wtf are you talking about? The ramp's walk around? Do you think they're doing a preflight walk around or something? They're walk around is to ensure all doors and panels are closed, chocks are pulled, and maybe catch any leaking fluids or something obvious. Not sure what that has to do with my comment though.
As I have been pushing planes back for over 10 years, I have had many flight deck crews ask me to speed up, push faster, as so on. I work in ATL...... I usually start pretty slow and speed up as I continue to push. But sadly with some of the equipment we have some of the push back tugs dont work very well, and when pushing slow, is when I get asked to speed up
Thanks to guys like you and many others, I'm now a retired pilot. You and all the other staff made my job safe and secure. 👍
Our pleasure! Thanks for your service
I love how the pilot waved at you, such a nice move.
Yea the crew was pretty nice
@@BluGames awesome!! 😎
Worked operations (quarterback of airport) did pushbacks-rode brakes......all the fun stuff for 38 years........loved it.........
I been wanting be a brake rider!
@@BluGames Riding brakes is running APU and talking to tower follow directions.......lotta fun tho
had an advantage in being a private pilot on the brakes, so used to talking to tower.
This give a completely new perspective on how airports work! Thanks for sharing
Yea it does. Thanks for watching
this was awesome! I always make sure to let the pushback driver know I appreciate the smooth pushback when we get them, because they definitely are not all this smooth! Nice work! Hope to talk to you on the ramp someday soon
Man i would be honored to! Im looking forward to it
Blu loving these airport vlogs man, all I could think of was real A32nx!
Looks and sounds exactly like it
Student pilot here, appreciate your work! This looks really delicate and with safety and precision in mind.. you must be a professional at reverse parking with a trailer! :)
My only experience before this was American truck simulator lol
This was amazing! Thanks for posting. Now we need to get some Blu audio for pushback in MSFS. Blu on the tug and V1 in the plane would make it epic!!
Workin on it 😉
GSX has really improved their graphics 😂 This is cool inside look into ramp ops. Thanks for sharing!
I can imagine that pushing back with passengers is much different. Working in cargo, I didn't have to worry about being as gentle.
Oh yea pax and crew can feel everything lol
i love people that love their job ♥ .. God bless you too
I love people that bless people! God Bless you!
I only learned several years ago that this is how planes back up! I had no idea! Thank you for sharing! You have an awesome job! But it’s still strange to me how something so little can push something so large!
Haha well thanks for watching!! It looks small but its very heavy and strong. Its basically a tractor
Ramp agents unite! Ya making it look easy out there! An incredible video man! (As always!) Actually completed my first two days of work on the ramp at my local airport this past weekend. Absolutely loving it! Also congrats on 29k my man! 😎👍🏻
Bro im so glad you like it!! Keep me updated
how do you like it and how do i go about getting the training before i apply?
Hi buddy i would love to find a job doing this, is it actually a school to go to learn it? how would i learn to do this job bro? thanks in advance for the info
@@omarlopez-uf4yp I’m no longer working this job, however I can tell you that it’s pretty simple to obtain. For me, all I had to do was find a ramp agent position on Indeed, another job finding website, or even the website of the airline you wish to work for. You’ll apply, perhaps get an interview, and if you are hired, you are sent to your airline’s training facility for a few days to be trained, tested, and certified as a ramp agent. Not sure if Blu’s experience was similar to mine but hope this gives you some idea of the process involved.
My advice for new ramp agents: once on the job, always ask questions and always listen to your fellow agents, they are your guides. a lot of your training and experience will come by watching, and doing, so don’t be afraid to ask for help.
@@RealNoGear One last question my bro, because the job I would like is Aircraft Marshalling and Ramp Hand signals, is there any difference between ramp agent and ramp hand signals when applying for the job? Would you need to take any extra course for hand signals? thank you very much for your help brother
This is absolutely fantastic. Very special to see your job from this perspective. Thanks for this!
Thanks for watching
To see the differences between companies is crazy. At the airline I’m at, mechanics are on the headset, pushbacks are rougher (there are no passengers), and we start right (Boeing), 2 (airbus), or 3 (MD) first. Awesome job my guy. Keep up the great videos.
Yea the differences are very interesteting between companies
You job sounds pretty cook tho
@@BluGames if you ever make it to Louisville let me know, might be able to get you in and see our operation.
Thats actually possible. I have a coworker in KSDF for the week, and its possible I could be sent there also in the future
So happy to see you doing something you love Blu!
Appreciate it man
this is sweet. just got in my recommended. loving it, make more!
I love watching your dreams rendering in real time! Definitely more 💪🏾🙌🏾
Still just getting started lol
I just stated working at BWI as a ramp agent. 3 weeks in training. This out off other duties look the most intimidating.
Was the most intimidating for me too. But i love it now
I would lobe your job, thanks for sharing!
Great video! Great commenting! You speak when needed and be quiet so we can enjoy the sounds of the environment. First video I see from you! Loved it! God bless you!
Thank you so much glad u liked it! Bless u too
Hi Blu. Just came across this video. Reminds me off when I did push backs and towing at Gatwick England. I was about your age when I started. Like you I love the job. Thanks for bringing back some good memories buddy. Keep up the good content 👍👍👍
got to see a sneak peak of this a fee weeks back, nice seeing the full footage.
Yea man!
Cool to see the usa version of pushing. Wing walkers and the tug driver on the headset doesn’t happen over here. We have a guy to block the road and a headset man thats me.
And we aim to get it on the line. But you guys have the luxury of the weather and open top tugs
Keep em coming!! Always love watching the ramp vids!
Yea thanks Aron
Great...you made it! I work for Global Aviation Services here on Okinawa Japan. We service all Boeing 7 series and Airbus 320's on a military installation. 30 yrs combine Military and civilian experience as a technician. Once again Great Job and glasd you made it to the flightline!
Very cool and thank you
You got photobombed at 3:20! Love the video.
Yea i did hahah!
Awesome video. I just got accepted into a traineeship to do this amongst other ground tasks and my training starts in April. So excited and great to see a POV.
Applied as a ramp agent, excited love airplanes
Great i hope you enjoy it!
@@BluGames, how long did you have to wait to get your badge. In the process of waiting for my Badge
Took me. A few weeks. Some people its faster and some longer. Depends on your history
Those beautiful CFM Engines are so Amazing!!!
Yeaa
I work with frontier in Puerto Rico, and the only error I see here is the pin that is loose, it can get tangled, here we give it a try (always remember SAFETY)
Blu I can’t get enough of these ramp videos!! Congratulations and keep them coming!
Thank you so much! I hope you are doing well!
Awesome dude!! AWESOME!!! Thanks for this!!!
Hey Amechi thanks my friend
Cool as an iceberg!!!! Lovin this! “Congratulations blu”
Hey man thanks alot Brian
Great video man, yes such a cool job when the sun is out.
Love airplanes man!! You Got the best view in the house👌
The BEST view yea!!
The better view might be from the crane of a de-icing truck
Great stuff, definitely more 👌
Man, the "Ramp Agent Appreciation Month" should be a thing, love from Italy!
That would be cool lets start that! Lol whats up Italy
I did this for 10 years but on the private side. and I wish there was a ramp agent month! we all work so hard out there!
Especially on holidays and when short handed
Absolutely loving it.
Seriously thanks Jay
Man I could watch these videos all day! One of these days I'll be on that flight deck working with you guys. What a great channel.
Thanks so much. Yes you will
Keep them coming, love these ground ops videos.
Thanks so much ill work on it

Awesome stuff Blu
I am about to start training for this because our company is passing the push back duties to the Ramp Agents from AC MX. Biggest plane we have is the 777-200F
Cool stuff! I work for a company that does Frontier Ramp aswell and tomorrow is my first day pushing back, and going to loadmaster class
Cool!! Just take your time pushing, it just takes practice. You will get better with experience. I also enjoyed working as loadmaster
Love it! Keep up the good work my man, this is cool! Can’t wait to start my first job as a ramp agent once I’m 18 💪🏻
Go for it!!
You’ll love it!! Best job ever
Indeed! Thanks!!
Thats a cool Frontier Plane
Yeah I am loving this too! This is AWESOME!
Thank you glad you like it

Sparkos whats up!! Thanks man
Finally a channel with great audio and video quality. Nice job.
I'm a new ramp agent and push the 737s.

So cool! As I pilot myself, I really appreciate all you guys do!
Heyyy thats cool. Well thank you so much and i appreciate and respect you also

Flashbacks to 94-96 Ramper at KCMH for America West. Ramping funnest Job ever!

Great video. I’m starting my pushback training next week. Kinda nervous so this video helped. Thanks
are u a ramp agent? how’s the training like? like what type of training did you do first? i’ve been wanting to quit my current job for a ramp agent
Training is really easy, just gotta pay drug check and background check
Love the content
Thank you Hamza
Definitely keep it going bro. Love the push backs!!! 💯 🔥
Preciate it man
Awesome.. Thanks for sharing.
I remember those days. I miss them
How cool is this!!! Awesome!
Thanks so much man
Hi ! Good job, but i felt that at the end of pushback the braking was bit hard cause I saw the tractor shaking a bit, but it was good, though i have retired three years back as a pushback/ towing operator i still love my job, i started in 1987 and last i was a trainer too both with towbar/ towbarless, i could push in reverse too, but you did a good job, keep it up.
Very cool, please more.
Thank you so much
I've pushed out that same exact plane before! love it!
Oh really! Thats cool!
@@BluGames pushed it out at RDU!
Blu - this is so, so great, mate.
Thanks my friend
bro this is dope man im loving them keep them coming make me want to go back fueling too miss the ramp life
Giooooo thanks bro
Looks like IAH - loved the explanations!
Yes it is and thank you
Bro, that was sick!
Thanks Capt!!
We want more of this!!!
Haha thanks Jett
Cool, just began pb training a few days ago. Seem to have picked it up well.
Nice video and i agree its a cool lil job.
Thats great! Enjoy
You need to do more of these!
Workin on it lol
Made it look sooooo easy!!!
Great work man! I so appreciate what you do as an airside worker who just LOVES driving airside doing fuelups and other jobs. Kinda surprised that you gave the pilot the green light to fire up the engines with you still turning, and potentially in the "suction path" still? I guess things are at relatively low revs initially.
As long as i dont cross the “unemployment line” the red line on the aircraft im still safe from the engine
@@BluGames My unemployment line is white/red/white lines on the Apron/two way roads etc! I could never do what you do as a total muppet at backing LoL
Yes more! Sick!
Love the video. More yes please!
Thank you Wes
Veey nice job dude! Great vídeo!
Thanks so much
So jealous! I’d love to do that job….just awesome!
Try it. Go apply
Dope video. Just starting at airport doing lav and water. Never knew what this job was called. I have to look into it.
Looks like a fun job
Great job BLU👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I miss working with you guys. I'm loving it at Hobby though.
Marcus broooooooooo whats up. I miss u to man! Glad you are holding this down at hobby! Theres no one more qualified then you. And how the heck did you find this video lol
Love ya ! .. please do more of this Videos

Shes is. I love the neo
Man that's so cool, i would love to do this one day too.
Yea you should give it a try if you can
Amazing video!
Thank you so much Curtis!!
So like your job also, Looks like sooooo much fun
Love it Blu
Preciate it HD
Nice job. I didn’t see the line you were trying to hit. I like that you only had one person walking out with you. I push for UPS and I can’t tell you how many times I sit in the tug and watch TWO employees fighting each other while disconnecting the bar
Good stuff Blu
Hey Greg thanks
Im learning to pushback and let me just say its really cool and fun
