It is important to note that the "Verify Ground network" process ''should be run'' in order to get a correctly working push back system, because this function runs some internal consistency checks. Push back routes can be very simple, from just one route segment, to fairly complex, as illustrated below. Shown here are 3 examples from the EHAM ground network. 1) Shows a fairly complex example, where all aircraft from one side of the E terminal are being linked to one shared push back point. In the example, the push back route of an aircraft departing from gate E20 is illustrated. 2) Shows a simple example, where one aircraft is being pushed back, and makes a left turn. In essence, 3) shows a similar example, but now in a slightly more crowded space, where pushback nodes are overlapping. The current push back system allows for fairly complicated behavior. To get a full understanding of it's workings, it is advisable to play with some of the existing ground networks. EHAM and KFSO currently provide the most complex setups. | It is important to note that the "Verify Ground network" process ''should be run'' in order to get a correctly working push back system, because this function runs some internal consistency checks.

Earlier version did not export the pushBackRoute attribute correctly. Support for this functionality was introduced late January 2009, but versions earlier than February 4 contain a potentially fatal bug, that may seriously damage your work. | ||
