Have you ever wondered what aircraft marshalling entails? It involves visual communication between ground personnel (the Marshaller) and the pilot. The Marshaller directs the pilot via the use of marshalling bats (during the day) or wands (during the night) to maneuver the aircraft—such as turning, slowing down, stopping, and shutting down the engines—guiding it to its designated parking stand or taxiway. #GACL #KIA #PassionAir #KenyaAirways | Ghana Airports Company Limited
