Stairs/Jetway on aircraft by default?

[disco79stu]

Hi,

quick question: is it possible to have the stairs on the plane by default when loading the aircraft?

If not, how do I command the stairs to the aircraft without calling for boarding just yet? I just want to have the stairs/jetway in position for pre flight preparations etc (like IRL)....

Thanks for any replies,
Sru

No, and it has been a precise design choice, which is appreciated by most users that might want to use other similar services (like service vehicles that come with an airplane), that nothing in GSX happens automatically.

Select boarding, but don't open the passenger doors. You can increase the time between messages, if you don't want to hear GSX asking to open the door each xx seconds.

Thanks for the reply, I will use that "workaround" then.
