👉 Haul back, also known as a "hauled back," is a command used in the United States Navy to indicate that an aircraft has been flown over or towed back. This command is typically given when the aircraft needs to be refueled, serviced, or otherwise taken off the runway. The term comes from the fact that the aircraft has been moved away from its original location and is now being towed back to its starting point on a flight deck.
