Hi

 

When using Pushback and when I want to stop it before the end I simply say stop pushback. Setting the parking brakes after but the ground still would announce Pushback complete after this and then the roll would continue forcing me to hit shift p to stop it again.

 

What triggers the doors on arrival?

 

Thanks Michael

Once you state, "stop pushback", wait for ground to say, "pushback complete, set parking brake", before you set the parking brake. That usually stops additional pushing. As for doors, once engines are shut down, jetway is attached (if available) and parking brake is set speak, "cabin crew doors may be opened". Front entry and cargo doors will open. Hope this helps.

I've had some pushback issues too.

 

one exemple : pushback set to approx 100ft, straight, angle 0 (happened twice with almsot similar settings). Once push is complete I get the "push is complete set park brakes please" message from ground, set the parking brake, but then push starts again. I stop the push by calling "stop pushback", the push does stop and I do get the message from ground again but push starts again... and that will go on until I complete the before taxi checklist and start taxiing.

 

Same thing happened once when after realizing I did not set my pushback configuration correctly I called "stop pushback".

 

Anyone else ?
