Marshaling A Southwest 737

[ikolkyo967]

Man he taxied in fast.

[swa6058]

Ain't that the truth

[coldpark48]

Who gives a damn how accurate you guys are and what signals you use at Fedex. Guy posted a video of him marshalling for Southwest and that's what they use. Don't like it, don't watch the video. Everyone on youtube thinks they're an expert on everything.

[MusicManAustralia]

Dang he came in fucking fast!!!!

[gent2000]

dang

[Coasterrider210]

can you hook me up with this job LOL

[swa6058]

That means "set your brakes" and its held til the chocks go in. The captain is also giving a signal from the flight deck with a closed fist telling us the brakes are set.

[dannysmurf]

What does the signal at 0:40 mean?

[MusicManAustralia]

@dannysmurf "Set your parking brakes"

[keebler156]

@dannysmurf It means set parking break and they keep that sign up until the chocks are in place

[irish7926]

ur marshling line isnt on the right?



[e25ist]

dude u did an awsome job!!!! i luv how u made them turn a bit...they really had there eyes on u man....u was in contorl..lolzz...bess vid ....keep it up!!!

[swa6058]

@e25ist Thanks!

[swa6058]

Not when they come into the gate. They turn them off just as they turn onto the jline. For one, not to blind the marshaller. And two, to let the marshaller know that they are in control. Once that happens, the pilots just follow his directions!

Hoping to work Ramp @ NCL UK next season..thanks for posting

[02baruRS]

and ground power connected is rotated about 90 degrees to the right. lord help this guy if he ever does any international flights

[swa6058]

@02baruRS It's different at every airline but thanks for your comments.

[02baruRS]

wow i guess heil hitler means stop now? i was pretty sure its an x with both wands.

also his 'straight' signal was very poor.

i pray for southwest airlines passengers!

[swa6058]

@02baruRS Actually that's the signal for the pilots to hold the brakes until the chocks are in. And once again, signals are different for every airlines. Thanks for watching.

[02baruRS]

@swa6058

at fedex, we have to have them right on the dot to put a tether in, otherwise they have to pick up our md-11s with the pushback and get it right on the dot, we have to be alot more accurate than this shit

[keebler156]

@02baruRS they make a brief x with the wands but then change to the 1 wand turned to the side, that means set parking brakes.

[jascl1974]

[airindia16]

[robinxr]

[MissDuX0r]

25,000. I am a ramper and make around 50 with out OT.

[SWVA7683]

Nice!

[pacquiaofan1]

Whats the salary of a marshall?

[swa6058]

well the job falls under ramp agent and i make around 25,000 a year

[holyshizzleitsconnor]

@swa6058 I'm sorry if this comment makes me seem lazy.. I don't really feel like doing the research right now. How old do you have to be to be a ramp agent? I was thinking of maybe doing that when i'm in college.

[isaiahfromtexas]

@pacquiaofan1 starting as of now, is at $10.18 with SWA and top out is $25.96

[biggestMetallicAfan]

@pacquiaofan1 It depends on who your working for, seniority ect...

[797190001]

pretty good

[chynagyrl25]

Is it a Hard job

[Kopihucky]

[swa6058]

[dalekinder]
