Title: Pushback
Post by Schmid on Jun 6^th, 2009 at 1:21am

Hi, all.

Recently bought this aircraft and I'm having some problems here.
Maybe I can get some help from you as when I opened a new ticket at support they answered me with KB#1063 which is very disappointing as I've previously searched all KB and forum.

The first point is about pushback. Using Shift+P 1 or Shift+P 2 keys does not work and the aircraft does not turn left or right.

Any ideas?

Regards

Schmid

FWIW ... I use a groung handling freeware program that backs-up and turns your plane anyway you wish. Also will taxi at any speed you set. Includes ground crew voice commands...very realistic. I also activate it when landing and it will slow my plane to taxi speed and raise the flaps. I got mine as part of PAD freeware d/l and now use it on every plane I fly except for my Citation X which seems to choke on it.

Hi, Dennis

Thank you for your reply.

As I usually fly on IVAO its control panel also has a pushback feature so I can handle with this bug.

I'd like to know if this is happening only with my install or if other customers have the same issue.

Regards

Schmid

Heh, I gave up on trying to get pushback to go one direction or the other in FS so long ago, I can't remember the last time I even tried without a utility.

Thank you all for the replies.

I could understand why C130 do not turn, but the 752????

Very disappointing.

Cheers

I've never been able to get an aircraft turn on pushback.

And hi Schmid, we know each other from another forum with an arrogant admin/moderator. :D

Hi, Ant.

Actually I have this problem only with this aircraft and with ATR-72.

Try it with default FSX aircrafts! It's a SHIFT+P followed by quick 1 or 2 (from upper numeric keys) to left or right respectively.

Nice to see you here!

Regards

Schmid

That has always worked for me too. I have run into the oddball aircraft where this doesn't work.

I never use defaults I should have added to that, maybe that's why it's never worked for me.

I found out that you have to be in the cockpit view to get 1 or 2 to work.

Hi, Eric

Do you mean VC or 2D?

I always do my pb inside 2D cockpit so I can manage engines start and it does not work for me.

Thank you for your reply. Hope to have a fix soon.

By the way, it did not work for me also on VC as suggested by Eric.
