No nicholas they dont, the NWS is disconected by the ground crew during push back , next time you have your nose pressed against the window if your really lucky and on the LH side you might see one of the push back guys waving to the capt, however hes not really waving like you might do, he is showing the capt the NWS lockout pin has been removed
