Explanation:
"When aircraft are being moved on the flight deck or hangar bay by handling crews, verbal orders (with orwithout radio headsets), hand signals, and whistles are used in giving directions. You must remember that the noise level on an operating carrier during landing andl aunching operations is very high. All verbal orders must be given in a loud and clear manner. Indistinct directions or orders may lead to costly accidents. When a high noise level can cause misunderstanding, the plane director must make sure that directions are understood by some form of return signal from his crewmen. ***In most cases the aircraft cockpit is manned during a move. This person acts as a brake rider, and only qualified personnel are allowed to perform this task***.When moving an aircraft by pushing, handling crews must know the proper positions for pushing to prevent damage to the aircraft. Crews must also know the correct use of handling equipment and the proper use of aircraft securing equipment."
