China News Service Hefei, October 12 (Zhao Qiang, Zhou Yue) Recently, a "new profession" has become a hot word on the Internet. At Hefei Xinqiao International Airport, before the plane slid out and prepared to take off, the two people waved goodbye to the plane, just like the wiper , and therefore they were given a very heartwarming nickname by netizens: plane worshiper.
These two "aircraft worshipers" who are popular on the hot search are from China Eastern Airlines . Their full name is aircraft maintenance engineer. They are staff responsible for aircraft ground support, referred to as aircraft service. The "worship" action that looked very cute was when the plane left the port, one of the aircraft raised the red streamers in his hand, and the other of the aircraft signaled the aircraft to glide forward. Finally, the two waved goodbye to the crew and passengers at the same time.

In 2005, some passengers reported that they saw the move of China Eastern Airlines flight attendant was very heartwarming, so China Eastern Airlines continued this action. Later, the move to send off the plane and waved his hand became one of the processes of China Eastern Airlines' flight support work. According to regulations, the delivery personnel will give standard gestures to signal the unit to slide out while ensuring safety; after the aircraft starts to slide, the delivery personnel will wave goodbye until the aircraft slides into the taxi track. The flight attendant told the crew and passengers through gestures: "I have finished the inspection and can take off with confidence!"
As aircraft maintenance engineer , their work is actually not easy and simple. It is not just a simple waving goodbye. It is necessary to be proficient in the various systems of the aircraft, but also to inspect the aircraft after the aircraft lands, and eliminate it as soon as possible after encountering a fault, and then sign and release it.
It is understood that waving "worship" before the plane leaves the port is not only a kind of politeness, but also shows the crew and passengers the full work enthusiasm, good spirit and rigorous work style of the Eastern Airlines flight attendant. (End)
