Hi there,
I have just done 3hrs online, and have come across a little problem ??? When pushing back, Why does the aircraft turn on command at Jersey, but will not turn at Bristol ???

well if it were really realistic i would say that because the tug crews at bristol are useless. an that was just watching them while eating my dinner at work:)
seriously though i have never had any problems, but remember it usually takes till the plane has traveled its full length to turn.

;DHi there, Thanks CraigL
Yes, I know about the plane length etc, prior to turning. As you seem to know about Bristol handlers, do you think Microsoft do as well ;D I do not know why this happens only at Bristol. Other airports seem ok
. Not a major problem, just an annoyance. Must be something to do with Bristol operatives, I think. Was not allowed to land there yesterday due to adverse weather conditions. Was this true or did they want time off like BA staff ??? ONLY JOKING, you all do a fantastic job on ATC. At least when I took off from my Diversionary airport, Bournemouth, my pushback turn worked!!!

Thanks for reply, CraigL
