A commercial aircraft is a powerful machine, but sometimes, it needs a little push... 💨
An airport's apron is limited in space and is tight to maneuver in places. In most cases, an aircraft is parked facing the airport terminal without the ability to reverse or safely turn out of its parking space. That's when a pushback tug comes into action!
With its help, an aircraft can be safely pushed off of a parking gate and onto the apron's taxiway so it can begin its route to the runway for take-off ✅
