AIRCRAFT MARSHALLING
D1 Analyse the consequences of non-
compliance with regulations and safety
checks when bringing an aircraft onto and off
stand.
At airports, the marshaller signals the pilot to keep turning, slow
down, stop, and shut down engines, leading the aircraft to its
parking stand or to the runway. The major consequence of non-
compliance with safety checks when bringing an aircraft onto and off
stand would be that it could lead to an incident losing all passengers
and crew on board. Some aerodromes begin the marshalling
procedure as the aircraft approaches the apron by providing a
marshaller directing the aircraft to its allotted parking stand. As the
plane reaches the stand, the marshaller will lead the plane to its
final parked position. Wing walkers will frequently function in
conjunction with the marshaller or guiding system to control ramp
traffic and avoid any wing tip clearance hazards.
A marshaller will assist with engine start-up, ensuring that the area
around the engine is free of risks and keeping an eye out for signs of
an engine fire. If a fire breaks out, the marshaller will notify the crew
using interphone or Emergency Hand Signals. Wheel chocks will be
installed, and external services such as the Passenger Bridge or
boarding steps, ground electrical service, and ground air
conditioning units will be positioned or linked as needed after the
aircraft is on-stand. As the flight crew directs, these items will be
disconnected and removed as the departure time approaches. When
the aircraft is parked and interfaces between the aircraft and ground
handling equipment are formed, the majority of incidents occur. The
most serious threat to flight safety is unreported damage. Operators
and airports share responsibilities for safe operation during ground
handling.

Compliance, at its core, assists organisations in acting
responsibly and adhering to regulations and standards
established by regulatory bodies. The Airside Safety
Management confirms this. This is confirmed by the Airside
Safety Management. Airside Safety Management was created
to provide guidelines on safe operating practises for airside
activities to aircraft, airport operators, employers, and
