AIRCRAFT FUEL TRUCK
« on: July 31, 2018, 05:23:47 pm »
Hello guys, is it possible to improve the refueling of the aircraft.

on the major airlines ( finding at my work paris LFPG) the fuel truck feed the fuel from the underground pipes and refill the planes at each times under left wing and truck nose to the rear except for the low wing aircraft (ex:737)
this config is used because all ground staff can works in a same time.

Marc

Fuel hydrant has been discussed and answered many times on the forum and yes, of course it's planned for a future upgrade.

Do we know when .

3, 6, 12 months.

With majority of airports with the underground feeling option, it would be a good feature to have.

Also, is it possible to prevent the additional pop up selections when catering is requested via a menu option, just to use the default?

Thanks

We don't. We have such a long list of planned updates for the core GSX program, that we'll be busy releasing updates for the next 5 years, at least.

The first planned update is an overhaul of the Pushback, which is probably the most used/useful feature in GSX.

I think our strategy should be quite clear: every year or so, we take a core basic system in GSX, and overhaul it entirely, exactly like we did for the refuel system, which was quite weak until we remade it from scratch. So, the refuel had its chance, now it's time to look at the pushback.

We'll eventually go back at the fuel at some stage, but we don't have any idea *when*
