What do you mean with "us" stairs ? Could you make an example of an "european" stair instead ? Of course, on the same size class, because the main factor when choosing a stair is the height it can reach.

yes. in europe we mainly use "the covered pull  stairs."  and uncovered pulling stairs"

the truck stairs we generaly not use in europe on the 737/320 etc.

(https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2018/10/05/07/22/stairs-vehicle-3725299_960_720.jpg) we generaly use these in europe or the covered version.
which would be nice to have as airport option too.

would be a nice gsx function for airport or airplane function to select which gsx can pick from?

737 in Verona, Italy:

But that's not the issue, even if the propelled stair IS used in Europe too, we'll consider adding a tow tractor to the unpropelled stair for a future update. However, the stair used is chosen by the door's height so, I'm sure you already seen that stair ( without the tow truck ), especially on 737s, because it's surely included with GSX, and can appear with any airplane with a passenger door lower than 3.5 meters from ground.
