We are working on passengers coming out of the stairs and walking to the bus.
However, seeing them sitting inside the airplane might be too much: they'll probably disappear into the airplane body, which is basically the same effect, as long as you see the airplane from outside.

I'm gotta go with Virtuali on this one.. Thats asking alittle too much.. I'll be happy that we'll just have ramp agents.. :)
What I was thinking though was especially in Hubs, have a ramp supervisor driving around in like a golf cart going around offering overtime or just to check in on them.. As well as like I said a guy that drives around with a tug & a flat cart attached to his tug, with Gatorade containers to drop off at the ramp during Spring & Summer time in Southwest State Hubs like Houston, Dallas, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Atlanta etc...

Well, it's surely nice, but maybe a little bit over the top. However, the Catering truck will have animation of people going back and forth over the catwalk, pulling empty food carts to be replaced with new ones.
And, we are already linking some effect to the meteo. For example, when it's raining/snowing, the baggage loader truck model will have a cover.

Virtuali.. Actually as real ramp agent, belt loaders don't have covers, we wore rain coats.. If you didn't see a storm coming or if it came on us quick, we just simply got wet.. Most times we'd be in the famous Yellow rain gear which during the summer was a pain, sometimes it was better just to get wet because you'd sweat yourself to death inside the yellow rain gear.. It held alot of heat on a stuffy 90 degree summer day with 80 % humidity.. lol Not kidding either.. Life of a ramp agent though... :) However keep it realistic.. Maybe they might put a plastic bag over the seat but no belt loader has a cover only pushbacks & tugs have them.. Just being realistic from a real ramp agent point of view.. Keep it real...

Virtuali.. You mentioned you were going to be putting in different kinds of Pushbacks.. Alot of the Hubs are going with the newer standard pushbacks where its high in the back & lower in the front for the uncovered ones & also ones called super tugs where they lift the planes nose wheel up & push it back that way & was wondering if you'd be adding those kind ?? Especially like in Houston, Atlanta, Dallas..
Continental even has smaller version of super tugs for there Smaller regional jets there just alittle smaller than the Super bigger pushback but there also called SuperTug & lift the nose wheel on the ERJ & CRJ's...

We are using this kind of model already, and there will be others as well
