It's all about gear ratio. A low power tug can haul anything but very slowly. Simple physics.

If a 767 is your idea of small then I would hate to see what large planes would be classified as according to you.

Many planes have reverse thrusters which can be used in a pinch to move backwards. Mainly they are used at touch down with the brakes to slow and/or stop a plane.

No. They are NOT authorized to use thrust reversers at any airport terminal because of danger in blowing debris at terminal. If you ever see that use it will be on third or fourth world airport, like Russia where they don't give a damn about nothing.. Thrust reversers are exclusivly used for initial breaking after landing.

The example of “smaller planes like the 767 and Bombardier” seems to suggest a lack of knowledge of the broader selection of commercial aircraft models.

The mixed balance between music and dialogue is excellent....I would consider a de-esser however.

I was a ramp agent in the late 80's early 90's and we would use the "power-back" method on all aircraft up to the 757 anything bigger would be pushed from the gate

Never heard of a powerback huh? Any craft that can produce reverse thrust can back up on its own...

@0:57 Airplanes do have reverse thrust- enough to slow it down. I'm sure they could backup using it but then it would also throw alot of equipment at the building so bad idea and thus the pushback truck.

Planes can move back on their own but it's generally unsafe to use the reverse thrusters so close to ground staff and also quite inefficient.

This video is very incomplete. You started talking about pushbach cars and ended up talking about tug boats which are not even land vehicles. Mainly you missed about the pushback cars used to push jumbo jets.

Because they would not be a barge but a cargo ship or vessel and would cost exponentially more. You would also need a crew and a Master to man it.

planes can reverse on their own using reverse thrust... but they are unsafe to use near the ramp area and are also very loud. that is y tugs are used. also 767s are not small, how can someone even categorize 767 with a global express XDD

1- 767 is a widebody and definitely not small. 2- you keep saying runway when you mean ramp or taxiway

It has nothing to do with power it's all about the gearing 👎😢

What😵😵😵 airplanes have no reverse. What a joke. Next time park your plane in an incline🤪

Why do they always move on to something else? Make a 5 minute video and then another one. It drives me nuts lol.

i don't know, cruise ships seem to do just fine w/o tugs. they come and go and turn 180 deg and more leaving the port of miami and geiranger norway. and they don't need tugs to dock or leave the dock. they use thrusters and can move sideways. container ships are another story. they don't have thrusters and need tugs to maneuver in tight places and for docking.

Azipods, … no risk of ingesting debris using trust reversers, 360° visibility, ….

280 hp, so not that powerful at all. Most mid size & larger farm tractors are more powerful & to be honest the push back truck doesn’t need more. Airports are usually flat & the low low gearing means the push back tug doesn’t need high power as it only moves slowly. The main reason for the size & weight is obviously traction, they need to be able to grip the ground surface in all weathers.
