Pulling aircrafts somewhere - Possible future?
« on: March 03, 2012, 12:12:29 pm »
Hi everyone,

Yesterday I was flying to a big airport and then got to a gate with a jetway and so I made the whole deboaring procedures and suddenly I had the idea that I'd be wonderful to see the plane pulling by a tug to the hangar. For instance, in Zurich, Thai's A346 often gets pulled to the hangar area, there catered and after that, pulled back to Gates E. Is it planned for a future big update to include this feature?

I'm not a developer, so I don't know the demand it forces to create that feature, but I guess it should be possible as a standard pushback is also possible on ''any'' airport and, GSX already knows the taxiways, otherwise the Follow Me car couldn't work properly.

Regards,

Philipp Betschart

Already discussed, and it's under consideration.

Is there anything that hasn't been discussed yet? You cannot directly reply on that, otherwise it's in mind already and not unknown anymore.  ;D ;D ;)

I really don't understand what you are saying but yes, it has been discussed here:

Almost everything has been discussed already, so I asked you whether there's anything that hasn't been yet and you obviously cannot really answer as it'd be in mind already and not an unknown idea anymore. Do you understand now?

Not really. I obviously have answered but, I really think you are saying something else, which I don't quite get it...

Having real flight attendants serve real food hasn't been discussed, doesn't mean he thought of it.   ;D

Sorry, did you mean instead: ''doesn't mean he didn't think of it''? Otherwise it would just agree with my statement. You say, something hasn't been discussed yet, so that doesn't mean someone could have thought about it, yes of course, because no one has thought about it yet, it hasn't been discussed. You cannot discuss about a matter that didn't even get in people's mind.

Your answer is confusing me now!  ;D
