Pushback issue at Freeware Mülheim X P3D
« on: February 03, 2017, 10:14:43 am »
Hi,

as I havn't found any similar thread, I'd like to ask if it is an issue with the freeware or maybe an config issue or an issue with GSX.

As posted I'm using Mülheim X from Bahrometrix. See: Mülheim X - Bahrometrix

The airport BGL you can find here: Mülheim X - mh_flughafen_afd.bgl

When doing a pushback from parking 29 I always crash into the parkings behind, as I'm not pushed back on Taxi(-line), I'm pushed back lets say 30-50 feet right of Taxiway.
As you can see in the BGL I shrinked the taxiway to 30 feet.

But it didn't help.

Any ideas?

Many thanks.

The taxiway width doesn't affect the pushback. The issue is, with a space so small, it's very difficult to fit a curve that would allow both the pushback truck and the airplane (so you must consider the lenght of the truck+towbar+airplane) without going into the other parkings.

It's likely a different (smaller) pushback vehicle is used there in real life, or possibly even manual pushing.

Umberto, many thanks for the fast and exact reply.

Sure, I think it is this in real life.

Is there a way to force perform this pushback with GSX with a very small curve?

In my honest opnion I think when the towtruck and towbar that is used by GSX yet would continue the started circle/curve a little more it would either more or less exact strike the taxiway.
I'm talking of a small plane (Carenado Mooney) not of a Concorde. ;)

(The manual pushback [shift+P] isn't what I would love to use :D)

P.S.: That brings me to a question maybe asked in another thread, does GSX difference the different sizes [small, medium and large] parking lots?
