GSX Rear Stairs

Featured Replies

Hello Simmers,

I had a question about the Q400 configuration in GSX. Having flown on a Q400 on numerous occasions, I have found that they often use rear airstairs to load the plane quicker, more often than not at smaller airports. Do you know if there is a way to configure the aircraft in the software to allow for the rear stairs to go that low? It would, in my opinion, improve the overall experience and add to the work already given to the aircraft in the FSDT software.


Thank you for your support!

Perhaps in the .cfg files of the SimObjects/Misc

Not sure if this is permissible via GSX, but We do not plan on adding rear stairs to the model.

Oh - that's amazing. Do you know yet if this is planned for pro or pilot? Regardless, this will really increase the ground realism. I heard back from Umberto at FSDreamTeam and it sounds like there's no stairs that have the ability to access points that low. Regardless, thanks for the reply!

Adding rear stairs which is an option from Bombardier, will not be added to the PRO or TRAINING Editions...

Sorry - I misread what you had originally written. Too bad, though I see the reasons behind this. I had meant airstairs, though I never realized that there are DH4 models with built-in rear stairs.

 

Regardless, I understand. Thank you for your responses!
