Boarding times and Aerosoft A319
« on: February 23, 2017, 12:59:50 pm »
Hi,

Since the latest updates I'm finding boarding times are much shorter than expected. The boarding times are set to 3 seconds per passenger which equals 5 mins per 100 passengers. In the Airbus A319 passenger boarding is very quick. Maybe just 1 or 2 mins (not actually timed it). Passengers are now all boarded before the cargo even starts loading. I haven't changed my settings at all, only updated GSX.

Also with the A319, the rear cargo loading doesn't seem to line up quite correctly. Seems to be at a slight off angle. As the cargo gets loaded onto the aircraft and moves through the cargo bay it also clips outside the hull. Only noticed this since the latest updates as well but don't know how long it's been like this.

Neither is a big issue, but just thought I would report it.

Hmm ok well that might explain the short loading times with this aircraft at least. I'm not doing anything different to what I normally do. I assume my boarding times per passenger must have reset then with the latest updates then and I used to have them set a bit longer. I'll have to adjust those settings again to something I like.

I also mentioned the cargo loading clipping through the aircraft though which is a separate issue but one I think needs looking at if you can. Images below:

Thanks for your help.

That's not an issue either, and it has been like this for a fairly long time: in the default configuration that comes with GSX, we intentionally configured the door angled in that way, because the airplane is just too short.

But of course, you can change the airplane configuration at any time, with the included editor. In fact, the rear door on the A319 should probably use a Belt loader, not an ULD loader. Again, something you can do it very easily.
