Watch me marshall a Cargolux Boeing 747400 Freighter into its parking stand at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport ( KORD /ORD ).

I'm standing on top of a set of airstairs because the flight crew wouldn't be able to see me if I were standing on level ground between the aircraft and the warehouse behind me.

The aircraft in this video is LXSCV, manufacturer's serial number ( MSN ) 29733 & line number ( ln ) 1281. This airframe is 21.5 years old at the time of this upload and has been in service with Cargolux since its delivery in a cargo freighter configuration in August of 2001. For a short period between July 2018 and July 2021, this aircraft was in service with Cargolux Italia the reason for that being that Cargolux has many customers in Italy, but Italian law wouldn't allow them to operate in/out of the Mediterranean nation as a foreign company, so Cargolux Italia was created as a foreign venture of the Luxembourgbased parent airline.

Thank you all for watching, and I hope that you enjoyed the video!
