Aircraft Marshalling Wand

Cosford, Hangar Two Aircraft & Exhibits

Aircraft can be awkward to manouevre safely when on the ground. Aircraft marshalling is a way for ground crew to assist in ground manouevres by visually communicating with the pilot using a series of standardised hand signals. Illuminated wands such as the one displayed here are used in conditions of poor visibility.
