    Can we please appreciate how amazing this lady's driving skills are. Some people find it hard to reverse a car, this lady is reversing a damn plane without even being in it! I loved this.

      @@ladyandtheramp I'm a glider rated pilot, but I thoroughly enjoy walking around and under large aircraft. Mine is a more peaceful sport. At best, I'll get a John Deere tractor, driven by an older guy, with silver hair showing from underneath a baseball cap, to pull me out to the staging area while I hold onto a wing to keep it level. No tow bar, just a rope! It's beautiful to soar under large CU's, using air currents and your weather wits.

And of course with all the hand signals on the ship, again, no big deal for you. Like all professionals, you make it look easy.

    It's great to see this perspective - one I'd not normally get to see.
    You make it look so easy. It's almost as though you've done it before 😉

    Another great video.
    Question- besides releasing the parking brake, (obviously) do the pilots have to do anything during your push?

      Not regarding anything pertaining to us (the ground crew). But usually they are doing their checks up there. And once they are out on the line after we have finished pushing…they finish they check lists.
