bombay doors?

Postby Fortune » Wed Feb 01, 2006 5:27 am

Hi,
  I'm an FS novice and have a small query on something that I wondered if anyone could give me a hand with.  The thing is, that some of the planes I use have got "bombay" doors on their bellys-that remain permanently open- and no matter how long I look, I can't find a command to close them with the keyboard.  Does anyone know how i can close them?

Thanks for looking

Check the readme files - they usually say. It is often Shift E/T or SHift E + 2 I think. Depends what the developer put in.

Cheers Saitek, sounds great.  I'm going to try it out as soon as possible,  I think it'll do the trick!

Thanks

Might help if you said what aircraft it was? ::)

Most though use either the wingfold, tailhook or entry 2 (shift E+2) commands for extra doors. Goto options/settings/assignments on the main FS9 menu bar and alocate a key to each.

Did you look in the readme files? ;)

It usually tells you if there are such things, and what animations they are associated with
