Pushback Events - Option to set the time

[Yousuf N 0]

Hi,

 

I don't know if this has been asked/considered or not. I could not find anything when I searched.

Can we please have the option to set our own time value for Pushback Express Events. At present it is set to default of 30 minutes countdown. I use some other tools too and to synchronise all the events properly, it would be great if we can set this time value (either through PE GUI or through a config file).

 

Thank you for consideration.

Regards,

Yousuf

You can fast forward the time, but we'll considered letting users adjust the start time

Cheers,

Thanks for the response.

I am aware of fast forward - both on PE & FS2CREW FBW A32NX. Just want to have more time so I can realistically refuel and get passengers onboard.

Thanks for considering this. It is appreciated.

How much more time than you need than 30 minutes?

Hi Bryan,

I was thinking UPTO 45 minutes before departure from the gates.

Minimum should remain as is (30 minutes) as I think this is sufficient for a realistic (somewhat quick) operations. User can always fast-forward in both cases.

You guys made a decision to keep it 30 minutes for both products (PE & FBW A320NX). So for people like me, if you want, you can hide alternative time setting in a config file or something. I'm not too fussed. Just happy you are even considering the change. However, if the interest is there from other users, perhaps a setting within the App config settings would be preferable.

May I also note that because both products were in tandem, it would be prudent to add this change to both. Otherwise, I'll have to keep tabs on the countdown on one and accelerate the other to match.

Cheers mate.
