Also remember that some of the PMDG 737 aircraft do not have the stairs modeled.Jim

If you change the model line in the .cfg file to have AS at the end of it (ex. WLAS), then you add stairs to the plane.

Even to the extent of adding the airstairs.bmp to the texture file and also the model AS folder to the plane folder. I get the sound effects using CTRL+F10/F9 , but no visuals.Regards JohnT
