Feature Request
« on: November 22, 2019, 01:35:04 pm »
I apologize in advance if this has been asked and answered. Didn't see it in any of the searches. Would it be possible in a future update to have belt loaders with the belt on the opposite side for the front bag pit on the shorter aircraft such as the 737-700 and the A319? The bag handler ends up walking through the engine cowl.

Is not something you can fix by customizing the vehicle starting positions ?

Hi Umberto, it has to do with the proximity of the front baggage door to the engine. When I worked as a baggage handler many years ago, we had a belt loader with the belt on the opposite side for precisely this reason. Not a big deal, just thought I would throw it out there. on the larger aircraft such as the A320s and 737-800s, its not a big deal since the fuselage is longer and the baggage door is further away from the engine.
