Blueish pushback trucks MSFS2024

Featured Replies

Hi all, slightly surprised that no one ever talked about those MSFS2024 pushback trucks being blueish violett ruining all immersion for me. Isnt there a replacement texture available anywhere already?

I just roll with GSX.

Sure, but this does not replace the pushback tugs for all AI traffic planes. It looks just silly all those blue pushback trucks all over the airport, once again I wonder how someone could potentially think that those blue things are an improvement over the white ones in MSFS2020. Another bad design decision imho...

Yes it does replace them. I've since only ever seen GSX pushback trucks and catering vehicles etc. all over the airport (except for when they are static objects included in the scenery). Unless I'm confused...?

Hmm, might need to tell GSX to replace them, is there an option inside the GSX settings I missed? In my case, my plane has full GSX services but AI traffic has none and uses default pushback trucks. 

Edit: talking about MSFS2024 here, where you have to disable all services in the GSX Pro GUI. Or more precise: GSX disables it on its own as soon as you use it in MSFS2024

Ah that might be a specific 2024 problem then. Those services are enabled for 2020

Curiously, I see a mix of blue and white pushback tugs for my own plane in MSFS 2020. To be honest, I would probably prefer not to see one at all, since they move a bit awkwardly when they are trying to get in position, and end up moving through cones/light poles/other clutter at the same time!

Hmmm...welp, just imagine that you are flying for a top tier company and can afford to use the GSX ones for your flight. I'm sure at some point, you will be able to change them as 2024 control is released to third party. I haven't even noticed it since I spend more time operating and trying to get out of there and airborne asap.
