Ground Services...

[bowler_man]

Okay, so the only usable ground services at airports that I know of are jetways, pushback trucks, and fuel trucks. I always see other trucks such as baggage trucks and others, but am I able to use any of them?

Wrong. Once you open your cargo doors, the bagage trucks will come to your plane
So the list of interactive vehicules is:
- pushback trucks
- luggage (or bagage ?) trucks
- fuel trucks
and the animated jetways.

I've noticed that once you've opened the cargo doors you actually get a cargo ramp approaching the doors, and then a luggage truck approaching the ramp

Do any of the default planes have cargo doors?  and what are the keys?

I don't remember for sure, but I think the CRJ and the Boeings have them.
To open the cargo, I believe SHIFT+E, 3 is the correct sequence.

The airport vehicles slider must be high enough in some cases too. I run that on 'low' and noticed ground services coming to the plane were very limited and did not always work. A setting of 'medium' or higher was required at some airports and at certain gates to have all services work.

dunno if anyone else noticed that.

Shift-F = fuel truck

Shift-E,  2 = cargo/baggage (that

But watch out, I was gettin serviced in my 737 when that dang baggage truck ran into me and totaled my plane so watch out for that, the baggage trucks can be kind of dumb

ya i think it would be much cooler if you could have food trucks and if you could actually have people going on your plane

Hopefully we'll see that come 2008.
