SKYGODDESS:
Hello everyone I am new here I have purchased several of the FSDT product I am probably the only female here
First of I think I speak for everyone in that the sceneries are fabulous .
The only thing I wish to see corrected ;) for the fs2004 products are the positioning of the jetways, they are turned outward ofcourse they are not animated but it would be nice to have them lined up so can taxi your aircraft as close to them as possible.


P.S
please don't yell at me if I post this in the wrong place its my first time here.

Ciao.

Maybe you should post your concern about the jetways in the area for product support for that particular airport or airports. Listed towards the bottom of the forum is all the airports from both Cloud9 and FSDT. I dont have FS9 installed anymore so I can't say that I have noticed them not being lined up properly.

Welcome to the forum.  ;D

virtuali:
Can you please be more specific like, for example, indicating which scenery you are referring to, and which parking position ?

Or, are you simply saying that you would like to have the jetways to be modeled as fixed in their extended position ? If this is the case, it doesn't make much sense: if they are not animated, they should be in the retracted position, which is where they are most of the time.

While trying not to speak for anyone, I think the suggestion is that the jetways would be modeled in the extended position, so that when aircraft are parked at the gate, it looks like they are in use, loading/unloading passengers. I would assume that would be pretty tricky with the different aircraft sizes/types. At airports like JFK and ORD, most of the gates are in use almost continuously.   :-\

SKYGODDESS:
Thank you sticky1202 that is exactly what I am trying to explain in my post.
most of the jetways are turned outward I have seen a lot of freeware airports where there are various jetway hight positions but at least you can choose where you want to park depending on which aircraft you are piloting but they are fixed into position ready for your aircraft where as in these wonderful paywares they are not lined up they are away from the stopping point.
So is as if you are expecting your imaginary passengers to jump off the aircraft and hit the ground rolling. Could you imagine the liability? OUCH!  ;D Just my observation.....For me it would make the scenery so much better if the fore mention technique is used in future distribution.
