When I was travelling in the Big Island of Hawaii, my DC-9 actually pushed back on its own by using the reverse thrusters. It was an outdoor airport where we had to walk onto the tarmac and climb up its built-in stairs.
You should do a video on the flight simulator; policies etc, who usually owns one, what circumstances you can use it in, how you gain access to one, what does/doesn't count against you in the simulator etc.
I just cant get enough of your mannerisms, professionalism, and passion At least 1 video a day now has to be watched since I found your channel, gotta have a daily Mentour fix. Your sub count is soaring! Will you still fly when you have 3 or 4 million subs and UA-cam makes you more money? :D Very welcome from Australia!
You should have led with "I am in a simulator" because i was really shocked you were taxing to show us how without getting clearance from traffic control. Great video lessons by the way guys
Until you said you were in a simulator I honestly had no idea, I was like man this dude knows what he's doing!! I was also wondering where the co-pilot was and whether it's legal to be filming while doing this 🤣
I really enjoyed this video and found it informative and also funny from my position as a ramp worker at a very tiny full service airport. we have a runway that is almost 11,000 ft in length and can handle any size plane, but we have no control tower and our pushback is Vietnam war era. I work for a major carrier and this year we handle A319's mostly but have also worked 737's, 757's CRJ's and have seen 767's land here but never worked one myself. it was interesting to see the pushback from the pilot's perspective. thanks.
I was on an Air Canada dc 9 flying from Calgary, Alberta to Vancouver, BC once. The pilot, when departing, did use reverse thrust to back away from the terminal instead of using the pushback truck. The flight originated in Saskatoon, Saskstchewan. I assumed he was running late.
thankyou my wife s 1st cousin s husband is a airline pilot was now he runs simulators now 787 dreamline aircraft it was awesum yea I luv it so ill be watching out for your videos thankyou mate im from new zealand
Very nice video. I just found your Mentour Pilot site and really enjoyed your explanation. The simulator added a lot. The first I heard of a "tiller" was on "Corporate Pilot Life" where they fly a G4 I believe. Anyway, thank you very much and have a safe day.
I like the way you explain how to turn the plain with the tiller and how to release the brakes and how to throttle the engines in the simulator,one day I would like to sit in one to get the feel of the plane.
if_virtualspotter IG I’m am not sure if you know but sadly Air Berlin have shut down although Joe’s childhood dream has come true and he is the first officer on a 747-400 with Cargolux.
Back in the early 1990's I was in an MD-80 in Raleigh-Durham NC Intl and we pushed back using reverse thrust. I've flow most Boeing /Douglas and Airbus aircraft since the 1950's and this was never done, however.
In 1961 i was studying in class 8 in karachi i was very much intresting to become a pilot of a boing aircraft but unluckely i could not continue my study after having my matriculation in 1963 ( i was about 20 21 years old ), than i got an employment in a int. Org., and served about 39 years. Now i'm 70 plus with good health but still i hv a creaz to watch all about this machine's. In my family one is my uncle (died ) was a sr pilot in national air lines, one my cusion an hali pilot ( has been retired ) and one is my nephio is a fighter pilot but i could not become a pilot.
Mmm very good explained and I understood it all. I also knew it was s simulator, you could see outside the window it wasn't real. You did good captain!
Thank you. Thanks for Upload Videos and give us a View Inside ur World. Hope you and your Family are also doing fine as Well. thank you so much for That.
Im training to taxi a crj900,controlling that tiller is my biggest problem,it seems like its extremely sensitive also i need to keep in mind avout overshooting the turns
Great video. And i love the 'I should prob make this very obvious to you guys i am sitting in a simulator right now so im not actually taxiing wildly round Dublin airport'
+Mentour Pilot Hello. Thanks for every video you made. I've got a question. During the emergency, let's assume you are a first officer when you warn the captain about his mistake and he does not give a response or take any action to correct that, in addition, he says 'don't worry I know what I am doing'... What would you do? Which actions would you take step by step? ( I asked some questions before but couldn't get any answer so I hope this time it works)
Thank you for this vedio.. I really appreciate it. I was completely unaware about this thing. I always have a curiosity about how the a/c move on the ground. Now it's been clear to me.. Thanks once again.
I had no idea about that small turning wheel on the side. Thanks for the video Captain Mentour. Now, how the steering is done on an Airbus? I guess, Capt Joe should follow that up, as you are a Boeing 737 pilot.
Excellent - I hadn’t ever thought about how aircraft are steered on the ground. I didn’t know about the tiller - very interesting. I assume the rudder pedals are connected to the nose wheel so that it follows the rudder when the plane is traveling fast enough for the rudder to affect direction.
When I was travelling in the Big Island of Hawaii, my DC-9 actually pushed back on its own by using the reverse thrusters. It was an outdoor airport where we had to walk onto the tarmac and climb up its built-in stairs.
YOUR VIDEOS ARE REALLY KNOWLEDGEABLE EVEN FOR THOSE WHO LOVES TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE EITHER THEY WANTS TO BE PILOT OR NOT
I absolutely love how in depth your videos are. Thank you so much!
Never forgetting the "Ground Side" Thank you! I enjoyed this one very much!
You should do a video on the flight simulator; policies etc, who usually owns one, what circumstances you can use it in, how you gain access to one, what does/doesn't count against you in the simulator etc.
Really appreciate your passion and commitment! Hope to see you in Singapore!
I just cant get enough of your mannerisms, professionalism, and passion At least 1 video a day now has to be watched since I found your channel, gotta have a daily Mentour fix. Your sub count is soaring! Will you still fly when you have 3 or 4 million subs and UA-cam makes you more money? :D Very welcome from Australia!
Youre supposed to steer with nosewheels.tow backwards with truck.
Lovely video! Thank you for sharing every bit of your passion with everyone, it is such a joy to witness all of this for free whilst sitting at home.
Fentastic video....thank you sir sharing that kind of very valuable knowledge subjects...
Glad you enjoyed it!
You should have led with "I am in a simulator" because i was really shocked you were taxing to show us how without getting clearance from traffic control. Great video lessons by the way guys
That is some mad simulator setup... defo getting that.
Until you said you were in a simulator I honestly had no idea, I was like man this dude knows what he's doing!!
I was also wondering where the co-pilot was and whether it's legal to be filming while doing this 🤣
Most of them are on their mobiles on WhatsApp 🤣🤣
This is one of those questions that I have always wondered.
'All doors and hatches closed and secure, bypass pins in place, tug and bar are connected and ready to push!' Great video as per usual from a Ramp guy
I really enjoyed this video and found it informative and also funny from my position as a ramp worker at a very tiny full service airport. we have a runway that is almost 11,000 ft in length and can handle any size plane, but we have no control tower and our pushback is Vietnam war era.

Which airport? Our runway is only 5107ft. Talk about small fries!!!
I was a ramp agent marshalling wing walker and truck driver to carry containers & stairs to aircraft.
Thanks for the lessons capt...finally knows how the planes maneuver on the ground👍
GREAT video, Captain ! Than k U Very Very much! Have a nice evening.
Your videos are the absolute best! You make it very easy for a lay person such as myself to understand. Thank you!
Very cool video with the simulator. Hope to see more of them. Keep the great work up 😍 ✌. Good day
I am doing absolutely fantastic. Thank you for the well-wishes!
This is awesome. 737 is my favorite series of planes. Especially the -400. I love the flaps design behind the thrusters.
Your kind of guys inspire confidence in pilots and pax... good job sir.
Nice to know Ground Control is in the vicinity.
Gosh! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us unfortunate landlubbers! People are sometimes so good, thankfully.
Fascinating. Never knew how planes manuver/turn on the ground.
I've just watching you previous video "Handling Take off and rotation" My question has been answered. Thanks!!!
Been thru Dublin 4 times this past summer. Thanks, as always .
thank you for the video! although i already knew it, you have me a little more information! im sick right now so this made me a little better :-D
i'm sick too in taiwan getting over a fever when temp is 38-41 isnt easy :)
do it if you feel like it yes, it can.
do it if you feel like it it can but it needs a longer runway and a skilled pliot
CaptainJelte I’m sick to
Plays, you were sick according to... whom?
I was on an Air Canada dc 9 flying from Calgary, Alberta to Vancouver, BC once. The pilot, when departing, did use reverse thrust to back away from the terminal instead of using the pushback truck. The flight originated in Saskatoon, Saskstchewan. I assumed he was running late.
Very informative ..... me think with all the other cockpit operations (in a real life) this is not easy...so...Thanks a lot Sir !
Fantastic! I'm a non-pilot but interested, love the content.
7:34 😂😂 lol , yet another fascinating video , always something to learn ! 😊😊
Always simply love ' Mentour ' videos and app.
Just found your channel. Hooked on it already. Great stuff.
Wishing u a fantastic day! And thnx for another very enlightening and informative quality web cast! Cheers 🛫🇨🇦
thankyou my wife s 1st cousin s husband is a airline pilot was now he runs simulators now 787 dreamline aircraft it was awesum yea I luv it so ill be watching out for your videos thankyou mate im from new zealand
Haha, I was totally wondering how you had permission to just casually drive around Dublin airport like that - simulator! Aaaahh...
Thank you...simple brief with well pointed...
Great stuff . That's a lot of fun and work , even on the ground .
Thanks Peter, another one of my aviation questions answered.
i always curious how they manoeuvre on the ground, now I know. Thank you for the great video.
Thank you for the great information captain 👨🏽✈️💯🙏🏾
That was something I always wondered about. Now I know!
Thank you Petter.
So nice video!! I love those videos from "the office"!! As simulator or the real one!!
Perfect and fantastic !
En gang til, har vi (sonnen min og jeg her i USA) set flere av videoene dine. Takk! Veldig interessant. Vi er store "fans".
Very nice video. I just found your Mentour Pilot site and really enjoyed your explanation. The simulator added a lot. The first I heard of a "tiller" was on "Corporate Pilot Life" where they fly a G4 I believe. Anyway, thank you very much and have a safe day.
I had been wondering if airliners still used a tiller. Thank you, Captain.
man!!! i can watch you all day!
wow I always thought it was a combination of NWS and differential breaking. Great video as usually..
Thanks for the video. initially i thought it was real plane.
That was my concert for so many years. Thanks
I like the way you explain how to turn the plain with the tiller and how to release the brakes and how to throttle the engines in the simulator,one day I would like to sit in one to get the feel of the plane.
you should collab with captain joe...
One is Boeing while the other is Airbus. Don't ask impossible things.
christianbro2 not anymore
two geniuses in one room asks for trouble...:D:D
if_virtualspotter IG I’m am not sure if you know but sadly Air Berlin have shut down although Joe’s childhood dream has come true and he is the first officer on a 747-400 with Cargolux.
Underbart! En video där du lyfter skulle uppskattas!
Ha en bra dag!
Great Video. Thank You verry much. Greetings from Germany and have a nice evening ☺️
Back in the early 1990's I was in an MD-80 in Raleigh-Durham NC Intl and we pushed back using reverse thrust. I've flow most Boeing /Douglas and Airbus aircraft since the 1950's and this was never done, however.
love it how you guys show us how to use a airplane
I love how you speak to the viewer as if we will ever have a chance to actually operate that aircraft.
Are you not a pilot?
Excellently explained, Thank you very much.🙏
In 1961 i was studying in class 8 in karachi i was very much intresting to become a pilot of a boing aircraft but unluckely i could not continue my study after having my matriculation in 1963 ( i was about 20 21 years old ), than i got an employment in a int. Org., and served about 39 years.

really enjoyed watching that video ..... thanks a lot that was useful
You are very good and clean explainer
Mmm very good explained and I understood it all. I also knew it was s simulator, you could see outside the window it wasn't real. You did good captain!
Thank you. Thanks for Upload Videos and give us a View Inside ur World. Hope you
and your Family are also doing fine as Well.
thank you so much for That.
Brilliantly Explained sir..... 👌
Awesome video. Great for the aviatoon freaks like me. Pls show us the step by step process for landing and take off. thanks
another great info. to the point. Thanks.
Great Information!!!! keep those Videos Coming.
Great video Mentour. I have learned something new. I always do with you. I always wanted to know how pilots taxi their aircrafts. 👍😊
Taxiing is being phased out. Uber is the new way.
I love videos like this
Thank you. I always wondered how that worked.
Thank you for a very interesting and educational lesson.
Im training to taxi a crj900,controlling that tiller is my biggest problem,it seems like its extremely sensitive also i need to keep in mind avout overshooting the turns
Great video. Thanks for posting and sharing..
Thank you Mentour
Oh wow that’s so cool 👍 That’s an art!!! Love it
Great video. And i love the 'I should prob make this very obvious to you guys i am sitting in a simulator right now so im not actually taxiing wildly round Dublin airport'
+Mentour Pilot Hello. Thanks for every video you made. I've got a question.

What would you do? Which actions would you take step by step? ( I asked some questions before but couldn't get any answer so I hope this time it works)
It won't i guess
I'm certain very few pilots would ever say that due to training etc but usually both would agree before making a desicion
The best vid i have ever seen.
Nice lesson! Thanks!
Thank you, for the demo.
Learning everytime
I was genuinely convinced that was a real plane...
Mee too
Well, the cockpit controls are real, only they are hooked up to the virtual environment. The seat is also real btw :)
Can you please tell me about Autobreak RTO
So real. 👌
Plot twist, it WAS a real aircraft and he WAS taxiing wildly around the Dublin airport, and the statement that it was just the simulator was a lie. 😁
Thank you for this vedio.. I really appreciate it. I was completely unaware about this thing. I always have a curiosity about how the a/c move on the ground. Now it's been clear to me.. Thanks once again.
Awesome! I really enjoy your videos.
Can you do a detailed video about the approach and landing like what's the proper descent rate, speed when do you use ILS etc...
I love this kind of video ! Can you make more of this : D
Nice teaching. ..
Hej Petter. Another great vid
Such a good video, thank you so much
Thank you, that was very good video!
amazing channel! love these kind of videos - keep it up :) and happy landings!
I love all your videos 😀😀
amazing video! keep up the good work!
I had no idea about that small turning wheel on the side. Thanks for the video Captain Mentour.
Now, how the steering is done on an Airbus? I guess, Capt Joe should follow that up, as you are a Boeing 737 pilot.
Love your videos . you have a new subscriber !!
Excellent - I hadn’t ever thought about how aircraft are steered on the ground. I didn’t know about the tiller - very interesting. I assume the rudder pedals are connected to the nose wheel so that it follows the rudder when the plane is traveling fast enough for the rudder to affect direction.
Yep! Great to hear that you like it!
FANTASTIC
It's amazing to drive this thing
