No big deal. Pull the chunks out and sign it off!

No need to pull them out. Just do a run-up they will self clean. save time so the next flight wont be late.

Hi Spuzzy, the video clip That I can see doesn't show that.
You're right, it should be.

Correction
 
Just went back and looked at it again, first beacon at about 3 seconds and cone at 4 seconds. Better go put my glasses on! ;)
Cheers,

my checklist says red beacon, must be a holdover from the old days when they actually rotated.

Whether the beacon was on or not, those engines are screaming loud at idle. It's common sense not to do what he/she did, but the lack of common sense, training, and vigilance played a part in the over all complacency of the ground crew.
