January 3, 20197 yr Hello, everyone! I just have a little question. How do you place SODE jetways on old airports? I have Overland RKSI and I would like to get rid of the old static jetways (i already did with an AFCAD that replaces it with default jetways) but I would like to know how to replace those default jetways with SODE ones. I don't see anything much on the internet, and I don't know what program I need to make this possible. Keep in mind, I'm using this for personal use, as I will not be distributing this. (I'm also aware Overland is for FSX/FS9, but I'll have to wait until PacSim releases their RKSI which will be a while) -Aaron Edited January 3, 20197 yr by arwasairl
January 3, 20197 yr The only SODE jetway placement tool I know of is FSDreamTeam's GSX2. I've used it to add/replace jetways at a number of older airports. It's not always a perfect solution...a good fit depends on the height of the jetway base in the buildings, as the GSX2 jetways only have a few fixed heights to work with. That said, when it works out, it works out well.

January 3, 20197 yr SODE Placer works fine, but first you have to search the internet for a freeware SODE jetway model. Or you could model one yourself.

However, be "warned" that GSX2 installs jetways that won't function/dock to AI aircraft. Technically it's in the documentation but it is, IMO, rather too deeply buried behind the "easily update all your jetways" PR and has resulted in much frustration from users. For this reason I used SODE Placer as jabloom noted. Good luck with the install however, the download and 12bpilot's site has ZERO guidance on installing (I haven't yet reinstalled it since moving systems) 🙄 Edited January 4, 20197 yr by sddjd Dan Dominik "I thought you said your dog does not bite....
