Narrative:
After pushback, we called for taxi clearance. Company had called for pushback but had not moved out of the gate. Bur ground control cleared us to back taxi on runway 8, turn right on taxiway a, and taxi to runway 15. He also asked us to expedite as traffic was on a 2 mi final to runway 8. As we were turning onto taxiway a, we saw a bonanza take off over us. Due to the haze and setting sun, we never saw the bonanza until he lifted off. He overflew us by 100-200 ft.
