Straight Pushback

[jackmill]

Hi There:

I don't think I've ever had a pleasant experience with the straight pushback option.  It doesn't automatically stop at 100m, and when I pick the "stop here and complete pushback procedure" the tug lurches forward and suddenly speeds up before slowly, slowly, slowly ramping down...another 100+m after I asked it to stop.  And that's if it stops at all.  Sometimes it just keeps chugging away at this new fast speed.

Is this a unique experience to me?  Is there a trick to using the straight pushback option?

It would be best if you could post more detail about your configuration. Which airplane you use ? Is it properly configured with GSX ?

Here's a video showing how it works, here doing the whole 100 meters path with an automatic stop:

And here showing how it works, using the "stop here and complete pushback procedure" stop:
