Just saw a tug pulling a UA 772 forward at SFO. Is this finally a new feature?
Are you saying that you saw a plane going straight on the taxiway or in the parking lot?
..what? No. In the gate area in international terminal area.. the aircraft was being pulled forward by the tug.
Do you know about auto pushback? That is new funcition
Yes, I know of it. I fly often. Iāve just never seen it pull forward
Depends on where you plan your pushback to it can pull forward but you canāt manually do it only automatically. Annoying it doesnāt allow you to be towed into a gate.
No, you can go back in.
Yes sir! Itās apart of the autopushback feature. After selecting your pushback location, you can tap again to select a āpull forwardsā location. Unfortunately, we donāt have access to the manual pull forward option, although you should definitely vote for it below, so that we can get it into the sim faster!

I have a question. However, if you press the āEndā button immediately after pressing the āResumeā button, forward and reverse movement becomes possible even if you are outside the parking area. This enables infinite automatic pushback movement; is this a built-in feature?
Thatās probably a bugā¦
Is this a bug youāve never heard of either?
I just tried doing the same thing, and didnāt get the same outcome - so yeah its likely a bug.
Definitely a bug. And yes, one that I havenāt heard of until now⦠gotta try that out tomorrowā¦
Uh..one more thing I need to mention. Have you ever heard of the Tug Car glitch more?
Iāll post a message with a YouTube video attached in a little while. I actually enjoy researching error phenomena⦠so Iām sorry for repeatedly reporting issues that havenāt been mentioned.
But it appear often..!
If youāre talking about the old glitch where the tug would stay on even after takeoff, then yes, I have. Some crazy stuff used to happen on IF⦠![]()
Uhh No. On the contrary, the tug car attempted to take off.
Pls check this post
a last message,I donāt know if the staff locked this because of the video title or for some other reason, but the ATC radio cutting out in the first video was just because my network was unstable, separate from the pushback. Itās a bug that occurs if you press end immediately after pressing Resume.
