Gradual Pushback

Hey all, the current Infinite Flight is outstanding, but it would be a wee bit better if we can have the tugs push the aircraft in a gradual manner!

Currently, the feature we have in the sim causes a sudden jolt in the aircraft as it is pushing at max speed from the second you start the push. For me personally, and to improve realism, I hold down on the rudder brakes at about 90% and then push. I slowly let go of the brakes to make the push back realistic.

But not everyone does this (or knows about this), so it would be great if we can have the push back can already be programmed in a fashion where it starts slow and then goes up to walking speed.

If anyone agrees, drop your vote!

Voted! this feature is required!

Also rudder shouldn’t be used in the pushback, IRL the tug turns the aircraft not the rudder

Totally agree. Especially in the 737 since the tug somehow pushes the plane super fast. I also think that they should add a feature where you can select where you want your plane to be and a bot pushes back the plane for you!
