Andrew Louis

This document outlines PX Airlines' safe pushback procedure for aircraft. It states that pushback operations carry risks of injury and damage, so operators must follow general safety rules and detailed procedures. All personnel involved in pushbacks must be trained and certified competent in the procedures. They must communicate safely with the flight deck, use wing walkers if needed, and ensure the aircraft and tarmac are free of debris before pushback. The procedure aims to prioritize safety for both aircraft and personnel during pushback operations.

Any personnel working outside the aircraft tug, should/must Keep distance from the nose wheel which are particularly vulnerable to injury. Headset personnel, be alert during push back process. c) All tug drivers should be qualified to drive aircraft tugs in all weather conditions. They should be trained in these procedures and certificated as competent by the ANG Engineering Services Quality Control Department, nominated and named by the Airline Management. Push-back crews should be thoroughly familiar with push- back procedures d) Ramp/Line Superintendent must/should always be present at Push-back to supervise the Pushback Event. Personnel nominated, should be trained and certificated as competent by the ANG Engineering Service Quality Control Department. e) The personnel appointed for the Headset communication should, ideally, be in speech contact with the flight deck crew throughout the push-back.
