I've noticed that the passenger loading door (one with the folding ladder)
will only stay open when the engines shut down. And sometimes it will open
and close automatically when your selected takeoff airport loads up.
You then see the door briefly open then shut (no keys selected).
Was that purposely programed into the plane?

Yes and as it's in the gauges, you can't do anything about it.


Majorly annoying when you have to frequently refresh the aircraft during development.



- Edit: Nice paint, Tankerguy!

Great aircraft and great paint, can't wait to get both downloaded.

If you turn on the "fasten seat belts" switch in the lights panel over the pilot's head the door and stairs should remain closed. At least that's the way it worked on previous CalClassics versions of the 580.

Hi Guys,
This aircraft looks really amazing, however I am having problems with installing it into FSX, I have downloaded the base package, installed the 2 x files into the gauges file but I still have a message re old FS gauge being "this gauge was created for FS98 so when I load the aircraft the panel is incomplete, I really would appreciate some help on this as I'm stuck.
Thanks

That info comes a few weeks and tons of swearing late. :|

The base package from the Calclassic page isn't the one with my updated model.

And my package doesn't show such errors. If you get warnings nonetheless, just ignore them or edit out the offending gauge from the panel.cfg.

Thanks, thats why I have problems then, as I was using the Cal Classic file, may I ask where I can download your model? I have searched here but can't seem to find it, think I need new glasses!!
Thanks very much,
Harry
