    AOPA :
    "Always treat the propeller as though the ignition has been left on and the engine is just a hairsbreadth from starting.
    Avoid pulling the airplane around by the prop. Yes, this seems the perfect solution to a vexing problem of how to change the airplane’s position without having to walk around and get the tow bar, but it’s worthwhile to make the extra effort.
    Neither the engine nor the prop particularly benefits from the loads imposed by horsing the whole airplane around."
    FAA AC 20-37E
    "Do not push or pull on propeller blades when moving the aircraft by hand. Tow bars are specifically designed for this operation."

I’m really looking forward to your next 2 videos on JMB. I want to take it from Golad Cias to Ayers Rock, Kakadu, Cape York then down the Great Barrier Reef. I have other big plans to go right around Australia.
