A menu option will ask left or right, and the airplane will be towed to the closest taxiway. However, if the AFCAD in use specifies no pushback in both directions on that parking, there will be no menu.

Ok sounds great, thanks for the quick reply.
Happy Flying,

Nice to know that we will finally have "Tugs" pushback aircraft in FSDT sceneries. ;)

I'm confused... AES has tugs pushing aircraft.   ???
What I meant by the "Tugs" are the ones that either are at the gate or the few that move around in the scenery. A picture showing what I am talking about; United Airlines 777-200 with a United Tug circled.

AES has tugs.  That's how you are pushed back when you select it.
I'm not talking about AES (Yes I know the tugs for AES pushback) but again since we're talking about GSX I am saying the "tugs" that are specifically in Chicago O'hare scenery. Refer to the picture with the tug circled. ;)

Ok, so what is special about the tug you circled?  I would hope that GSX would have nicer tugs than that.

We'll have way better looking tugs than that and yes, they'll have multiple liveries depending on the airport.

Possibly a stupid question, but I'll ask anyway  ;D I know that Flight Beam works pretty closely with you guys, atleast as far as I can tell since they use your addon manager. Would you support animations for their jetways, even though you said you would only support your own?

Well, we could help Flightbeam animate their jetways, but it's not really something we have to "support", they'll have to include them within their scenery anyway.

We could simply replace their jetways with our own models, using the textures that are already installed in KSFO, and create an exclude AFCAD ourselves to exclude their jetways, just like AES does, but it's not the correct way of doing things: if Flightbeam wanted to change something in his own AFCAD related to jetways positions, we would need to change the excluding one too, just like AES (when we released Zurich 2.0, we moved many things around, and this break AES for it).

The right way of doing this, is to have the original scenery developer making proper FSX jetways on his own.

WHEN we'll have our own jetways system, it would be different, and likely talking with developers might be required.

Airports are so lifeless without GSX. I am absolutely happy with LAX but the thing is missing is the ground crew... Any idea when this will be out?

As already explained in all the messages that asked the release date, it should be out before the end of the year, we don't have a precise release date right now.

It's compatible with any FSX scenery, default, 3rd party, payware or freeware, past, present or even not released yet.

Humberto,

Tks for answer.

Just two another questions: Is support for the freighters and will feature paintings by companies such as Swissport, Sata, Mangabeira ...?

Cheers,

There's no specific for Cargo operation but, we were considering it as an expansion package, possibly with specific cargo operations.

It's very easy to add paint of new operators, though, and they can be customized per nation, airport and even parking airline codes in the same airport.
