G'day bugsquash1,

Unlke the older B747s the B747-400 can pressurise all four hydraulic systems before engine start and complete the control check before pushback. This is standard procedure for QF. There is a combination of engine driven pumps, air driven pumps and electric pumps to pressurise the various systems.

Regards,
BH.
