Addon Aircraft using Jetways and bagage trucks

Featured Replies

Not a big deal, but is there a way to get addon aircraft for FSX to be able to use the jeyways at major airports? Also to have the baggage trucks pull along side the plane. Is this a config thing, or does it have to be built into the plane.Rob

I believe this is a config thing. There are certain points the jetway needs to connect to so it's aircraft dependent. If the developer hasn't added them in you may want to check their forums for any config updates.Not sure about the baggage cars, haven't used the heavies much, but the push back tugs have worked with all my add-ons, depends on parking though. Fuel truck also works with the call fuel truck button.Ian.
