Title: Fueling and other phases simulataneously
Post by: Dimon on April 14, 2017, 03:33:36 pm
Perhaps this question has been already answered, but sadly I didn't find anything related to this topic. Since it takes almost an hour to fill the tanks of B747/777, is it possible to perform let's say fueling and loading simultaneously?

No, it's not, because most of the times the loaders will clash with the refueler truck, which is why they go away when the fuel arrives. Either use Fuel acceleration, or load/unload before refueling.

The same applies to the catering service? Meaning it cannot be done simultaneously with refueling?

I'm not sure, and I cannot check it here but, have you tried it ?

I am not able to start refuelling when catering is in progress.

And i have the latest version of GSX, installed the full installer 3 weeks ago.

Is simultaneous reguelling and catering service a configuration option ?

The program doesn't support that, to prevent possible clashing of vehicles on approach. Even in real life, there are additional precautions to take if doing refueling while catering, and in some airports it might not even possible, due to safety or space constraints.
