aircraft doors open then close right away

Featured Replies

This may have been covered before but for years I have noticed at various times that when I park an aircraft like the default King Air then press the shift + E key to open the passenger door it opens then closes right away. This is something that seems to come and go and has been going on in FSX for years now. Does anyone have a clue what causes this and a fix? Thanks, Norm Flowers member of SimFlite.com, the largest flight simulation group in Southern California.

The best solution would be not to park in the vicinity of fuel spot. There is no problem, if there are additional parking spots at the airport, but if the only one is the fuel station, my solution is to slew a feet or two, open the doors. If they close again, I slew an inch more.

You are right as I was at the fuel pump when this happened. FS is full of little quirks that we run across from time to time. Even after over 20 years of using MSFlight simulators even the original one from BAO there is always something new to learn. Thanks for your response and I will try this next flight. Norm
