August 11, 201411 yr How do I fix the floating jetway issue? Can I change the jetway height in ADE? Thank you! Henk de Vries
August 11, 201411 yr Not a pmdg issue, but a fsx quirk. You will need AES from Aerosoft to use at AES designated airports to fix that. Not sue if ADE can fix that Henk, but someone with ADE knowledge hopefully can shed some light.

August 12, 201411 yr You didn't know??!! They're installing floating jetways in a lot of airports. B) Rem YangFlying is Fun!
August 12, 201411 yr This is a bug in FSX, the wheels are supposed to stay locked to the ground but it was broken in SP2. Hopefully something LM can fix in P3D
August 12, 201411 yr Author So...basically the 777 is unusable with one of the essential default features of FSX? I use AES wherever possible (read: where I own a scenery that supports it). Henk de Vries
August 12, 201411 yr Commercial Member So...basically the 777 is unusable with one of the essential default features of FSX? haha - you're arguing that the 777 is "unusable" because of a default FSX animation that has no bearing on actually flying the plane? That's...that's a new level for me. Kyle Rodgers
August 12, 201411 yr Author haha - you're arguing that the 777 is "unusable" because of a default FSX animation that has no bearing on actually flying the plane? That's...that's a new level for me. Oh dear....no, that was not what I meant, but it may have come across like that. I stated that the *combination* of using the 777 & the default jetways make the default animation unusable for me. I love the T7 and I wouldn't call it 'unusable' in a million years. Henk de Vries

August 12, 201411 yr Don't ask me where I found this because I can't remember but this fix does help. The bridge doesn't line up 100% plumb with the aircraft but it's a hell of a lot better than what your seeing now. On the Z coordinate in the Exits section of the aircraft.cfg file, change the 12.X whatever PMDG entered to an 8 and you'll be much more pleased with the vertical alignment. The jetways will no longer jump into and hang in mid air to meet the deck - they align pretty much right on (as far as appearances go).

August 13, 201411 yr Author Thank you very Chris, that was a good suggestion: it worked, I even lowered the 2L exit to 7 and moved it outwards on the Y-axis a lbit (-9, default -8). The jetway is only hovering a little bit now. Henk de Vries
