Ah, thanks for your work!
It's nice to hear someone's working on it.
I've tried to get the pushback work yesterday and I find out
that it needs a lot of power (even when towing a light bocian).
But if I increase power (in the code) the pushback races when
there's no plane behind. 
 
So I think (no, I know) I can't do the nasal stuff myself.
It would be great if you (or someone else) will do that.
 

Regards,
Gijs
