I've never seen a pushback from this perspective before. Nice vid! Those 777's are some beautiful machines. I'd love to travel on one once before I'm done. Unfortunately, most destinations I travel to only call for regional jets. Guess I should start saving up for a trans-continental trip!

The Airplane business is definitely socio- eco-political...so many variables(behind closed doors)...You are definitely right there. I did not say the RR was worse...but the GE is the monster to have, thrust outpust,frugality, and durability/reliability. At least GE aint giving it to the A350...777 has exclusivtity to it.

The Pilot Gets the Instruction from the Tower where he/she should be push ie, Tail south north wets etc etc..the Bypass pin which u see with that red strip keeps the nose gear locked so the pilot wont accidentally trn the wheel while he is pushing back..thats VERY importaint..but it really dosent matter if the plane goes directly on the line or not..Mainly we just use that has a Guide cause sometimes gate space can be too close like at LAX..

all power is on the truck. the plane helps in that the flt deck releases and sets the plane's parking brake at the begining and the end of pushback respectively.
@Floh

First of all a pilot contacts the delivery (if there is one) for the IFR-Clearance to his destination containing at least the standard instrumend departure route (SID) and the squawk code. If this readback is correct, the pilot requests startup and pushback from the GROUND ATC or the Apron, whoever is responsible (different between airports). If pushback is completed he contacts Ground again for taxi and reaching the holding point the release to the tower for the t/o clr is last.

It would reverse out...then it would be called a powerback...BUT the engines are to low over the ground, so they could suck something in(that´s also the reason, why they disengage reverse thrust at 80kts) and that wouldn´t be cheap. Powerback is mainly used on MD80´s and some props.

Jet engines are started on compressed air, There is no ripcord to start a trent, the rope that people see is the cord for the interphone so the LAME can speak to the pilots, No it is not Bay 37 but bay 57 if i remember correctly it has been 2 years since I worked there on break down crew. The dolly wheels on the towbar should have been up higher

You made an mistake. Its better to stay in the circle of the rod. In this case you have to stay on the left site. Because if the rod breaks, you not get injured from around flying pieces of metal. The metal will be fly to the right site when the plane will be pushed to the left site

hello mate, Just curious to know couple of things since you are in this job for so long. Is it really important for the front wheel to be on the yellow line? Why? What if it's not exactly on the yellow line while taxing etc? Also, after pushing back straight is it the job of pilot to turn it right or left in direct or you yourself turn the aircraft?

Get your Boeings right! There really isn't' a way to tell how many wheels the plane has in that video cause its to dark.
