B777 optional AFT cargo door size.

Featured Replies

Anyone familiar with the 777 will know that the aft cargo door has been offered since day one in two different sizes.

 

 

SQ for example has chosen the smaller one for its -200ER and -300/300ER.

 

UA have the large one.

 

Virgin australia have the small on on the -300ER.

 

and the list goes on. Large AFT door is however the preferred option for most carriers.

 

 

 

The FWD cargo door only comes with the large door, so thats a non issue.

 

 

 

Just want to confirm you guys are making this a customer option!

  • The most likely reason is that the post was off topic.
  • The topic could also have contained images or a video that were not appropriate to the original forum it was posted in.
  • The images might not have been "illustrative" or "explanatory" in nature.
  • The topic could have been moved because we deemed it to be more appropriately placed elsewhere.

This will definitely cause your 777 to be unflyable if they don't put it in!

 

Much like WXR then xD

Maybe, maybe not. I could easily see this as being an option you choose in the FMC like the satellite / wifi antenna on the NGX. You can add that antenna to any aircraft regardless of livery, so why not? :smile:

It's a little different than that. The SATCOMM antenna is the same size, regardless of it being on or off. That makes it easy to just paint in the kit in case someone wants it. Somehow having two door sizes, on the other hand...

Yeah that satcom is only being hidden...

So I can imagine having to reload textures mid flight.

Oh yes, forgot it had to open as well.

Wouldn't it have to be a separate model for it to work correctly?

I don't see this as been something feasible.

In that case I would probably just model the size that is more common.

Because you don't care about 100% realism at all, do you..

Eh...for what it's worth, the pilot isn't probably the least bit concerned about that cargo door's size. Heck, I'm sure some pilots don't even know there's a difference between their fleet's cargo doors versus another's.

 

The rampie, sure, but the pilot? Hardly. It's of no consequence to him or her.
