Chapter 1. Introduct ion
1-1. Purpose
This document describes practices that can minimize the likelihood of personal injury and propertydamage associated with aircraft surface movement operations. It also provides users with industry-standard visual signals -- even when direct voice communication with the aircraft is being used.
1-1-1. Operating Environment
There are several reasons why aircraft surface operations require continuous monitoring and clear
understanding among all participants, including:
The limited visibility available to flight crew members;
The confined area within which many aircraft movements should be accomplished whenarriving at and departing from a gate;
The amount of noise present on a typical ramp (which precludes most audible warnings orsignals); and
The possibility of confusion caused by visual illusions and misperceptions that typically result
from how swept-wing, tricycle-gear aircraft move when turning.
1-1-2. Design of Industry Information Models
This document should be supplemented locally as needed to provide for special signals required in thevicinity of regional jet, turboprop and propeller-driven aircraft operations.
1-2. General Instructions to Marshallers
No person should attempt to marshal or guide an aircraft unless trained, qualified and approved tocarry out such functions as may be established and approved by the local Airport Authority.
Marshallers will be responsible for providing standard marshalling signals, in a clear and precisemanner, to arriving and departing aircraft.
Caution: In every case where there is actual or suspected misunderstanding between a
marshaller and a flight crew, all aircraft movement should be halted until the
confusion is fully resolved.
Marshallers should wear a distinctive Identification Vest (preferably ANSI, Class II) to identify to the
Flight Crew that they are the person in charge of the marshalling operation. "Day-Glo" wands, tabletennis bats or gloves should be used for ALL signaling by ALL participating Ground Crew personnel
during daylight hours. Illuminated wands should be used at night or in low visibility.
Note: Throughout this document, any reference to wands may also be understood to refer to either
table tennis bats or high-visibility gloves (daylight hours only).

Chapter 3. Technical/Servicing Signals
A number of hand signals are used to communicate to flight crews during the aircraft preflight or
shutdown process that relate to servicing or handling functions. Manual signals should only be used
when verbal communication is not possible. Ensure an acknowledgment is received from the flight
crew on all occasions.
3-1. Connect Ground Power
Hold arms fully extended above head, open left hand horizontally and move fingertips of right hand
into and touch the open palm of left hand (forming a T). At night, illuminated wands can also be
used to form the T above the head.
3-2. Disconnect Ground Power
Hold arms fully extended above head with finger tips of right hand touching the open horizontal palm
of the left hand (forming a T), then move right hand away from the left. DO NOT disconnect power
until authorized by the flight crew. At night, illuminated wands can also be used to open the T abovethe head.
