Great product!  Suggestion:  I fly a Pilatus PC-12 for random medical flights, in and out of randomized FSX airports and then to randomized major medical centers.  My needs are ambulance*, catering, fuel, marshaller for start* and depart*, follow me TO runway*.  Are these* in already that I could use?  I also do the F1 Cessna Mustang and the PMDG 737NGX.  Thanks for your work!

Steven - thanks for the prompt reply.  I already own GSX.  The manual doesn't mention how to get an ambulance, nor can I find a marshaller for start up and depart to runway.  Everything I've seen thus far is for activities after landing.  Please point me to start and depart.  Thanks.  Richard

press CTRL+F12
This will bring up the GSX menu
You can there press numbers 1 through 6
Pressing number 5 will call for pushback
You may get another window asking for the direction for pushback

The ground crew will start there work and listen for the instructions to release / set the parking brakes

Once the push is finished the ground crew will say have a nice flight and then leave...

You now have to make your own way to the runway.... (it would be nice if a follow me car would take you to the RWY but it doesn't)

You cannot get any emergency services like fire / ambulance at the moment as GSX doesn't include this feature... Maybe in the future when Umberto gets to a place where he is happy with GSX.
There are more important updates at the moment for GSX so you never know what will come to GSX in future.

Hope that helps

Steven,
Thanks again.  Being a small single, I don't use pushback.  The ground ambulance vehicle I was interested in was to bring patients TO the aircraft and AWAY from the aircraft, acting as patient bus service for my PC-12 "air ambulance."  The ground ambulance would be a vehicle in the food, fuel, bus category.  I was thinking a van with a red cross on it (could I "rebrand" a van?).  But I understand that GSX is a work in process and I'll live and learn as the GSX development process continues.  Clearly the focus is on development for the heavies.  I understand.  Richard

I dont really know that aircraft well so i cant say what "services" come the the AC
If you try the "bording" option what comes to the aircraft??
If it is a little van you can do a re-paint" for the van and place it at all airports (this would require a lot of time to enter the codes ect... plus the paint itself)

Maybe that route would be better to get the mini-van/bus to the aircraft... it would then look like a ambulance

Im sure when Umberto sees this topic he will give a better view on what you could do

as for the ground crew the only crew that assist is the pushback
there is catering and refuelling already there for you

Search the forum for topics about the paint-kit that you can get for GSX and how to add them to FSX/GSX

let me know how you get on

GSX doesn't have any ambulances. It does have departing marshallers (wingwalkers) during Pushback.
