A question of Right of way

I was well in the grassy area, but the taxiing Cessna still stopped as if I was blocking the taxiway. I think in real life he would have gone on past, but in the sim, I think it interpreted the gasbag as a hazzard?

Well I belive in real life airships such as tht have the right of way 100% of the time except for aircrfat in distress? JordonJ correct me if im wrong, I didnt get the best of scores on my FAA Prep test  :-[ If I were in that cessna I would wait for it to move because if a wind came along it could cause a headache :D

I'm just a sim enthusiast...not a real pilot!

Most of what I say is either from those more knowledgeable or just Wild A$$ed Guesses!

Usually the least maneuverable aircraft has the right of way, from what I can remember, if that helps anymore.

Look like a loose pair of glaces on that consol. instuctor would not like that.... any loose object on the console can become letal and or distract the pilot.... just something i heard on TV....  ::)
