Yes, it sure is amusing … unless you are the one tasked to fix it, with inadequate time, and with stressed resources …
Thank God, that’s not me !!!
I figured out why the tug operator drives into the props! He’s lookin the wrong way.
Maybe a little toot-toot of the horn would get his attention, but I can’t find the horn button in the cockpit.
When,( if ) Asobo fixes this, I will actually MISS the “Casual behavior” of the current “Tug Driver”.
Its difficult to get good workers these days, and that is clearly reflected in the MSFS sim
I am of course, talking about the Humans in MSFS, ( Not ASSOBO) the Tug Drivers, the “Flag Girl”, the numerous Ground Crew that gather around the plane, and do nothing, and of course the ATC controllers, who seem so senile, they should have retired years go – they must have been the few that missed the Regan ATC retirement program !!
BTW: I see that ASOBO is still hiring for additional employees to work on MSFS - a GOOD sign ???
When (if) it gets fixed, they should leave the odd one in as a sort of easter egg.
Do different countries get a more Localized set of Artworks for the Ground service crew and the Pilots ??
Anyone have any idea where those graphics are ???
With the right editing program, can they be edited …
YES… I want MY face on the Pilot when I am flying
Above all things it is stupid to tell the tractor driver now to the back stop now to the left stop and so on. You would have to give it a command, now pushback to the left or right as it used to be in FSX and then you can do other things in the Cocpit during that time, such as starting motors, etc. That has to be changed I don’t want to give every little command that is not realistic! Please change that soon too!
Me too!
Well, on the co-pilot.
I want your face on the co-pilot.
Yes, Basically
“Push me back to a suitable place I can start my engine & taxi”
AND
" Without backing me into anything, like other Planes, or a Hanger wall" !!!
And don’t waste time, I am on battery, and I still need to start my engine !!!
Pushback Helper is good. Not the best but better than MSFS. It still uses the MSFS tug but it controls the action and direction while moving back. Also controls the Jetway so you dont have to call ATC to connect or not.

Less than $100 gets you your own “DELUXE” Cessna TowBar, you can keep in the plane, and you don’t have to mess with the Tow Tug driver.
I have never has a Cessna Towed for me !! You just get out the Towbar and do it yourself.
Good Exercise !!
Note: That’s Cheaper than the DELUXE MSFS

Somehow, I don’t think that many of us will be puttimg our own faces on the Pilot or Co-Pilot.
Finding the 3D graphic gltf files for the Pilots is easy…
Editing them is a whole other matter … its not just simple Photoshop !!!
Long learning curve …
Having said that, I bet there are some Modders here, who could do it in their sleep …
Yikes! Sounds like it would just be easier to get plastic surgery to make me look like the pilot.
LOL You watched the Video !!!
I would throw a few bucks at a Pilot addon, with a better selection of Pilots and Co-Pilots.
Having say John Travolta, or Captain Sullenberger, as my Co-Pilot would be cool.
Not so sure about Harrison Ford, especially if I am flying in California

Blender has an add-on for GLTF editing.
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/2.80/addons/io_scene_gltf2.html
I haven’ t tried the add-on, but this is likely to be an easier route to take.
And, for anybody who hasn’t tried Blender yet, it’s an incredibly versatile (and free) 3D/2D/Animation creator/editor, and well worth looking into for lots of uses (not just in FS2020).
Flew in KIAD (Dulles International) in C172
Taxi to parking (let AI Co-Pilot do it, he seems to know where to park)
We arrive at the designated Parking space, but it would seem that the Marshall was not available to guide us to our spot – it seemed she was otherwise occupied.
Don’t ask !!!
Never a dull moment in MSFS – never know what to expect next …

Actually, this demonstrates another issue - That of Colliding object on the ground.
ie
(a) Ground humans trying to occupy the same location,
(b) Tug drivers able to push back into another plane.

and the list goes on …
