Add more realistic Pushback Tug/Towbar hook up timings.
« on: September 30, 2022, 03:12:28 am »
Good evening,

Would it be possible to allow the pushback bar and tug to be connected at any point of the flight, rather than when ready to push only?  For example, irl we are able to hook up the tow bar and tug a few mins after it blocks in, if it’s a turn.  If it’s sitting at the gate, we can hook up as soon as we arrive to the gate and plane. If there was an option to get hooked up prior to departure, as in any time at the gate, which could be as soon as we spawn in, during boarding or as it is now, when ready to push, it could allow for a faster OTD (On Time Departure) instead of having to wait minutes for the ground crew to install the bypass and hook up.  You could realistically have all these options to simulate your flight how you want.  Just a suggestion that could possibly get looked into, to enhance GSX.

----
All the best,
Awemeter

And could you maybe make the whole procedure and the words they say more accurate?

Every suggestion is always taken into consideration. It would have been helpful if you just said why you think the "whole procedure and the words" are not accurate.
