Has anyone ever created a utility tool that allows you to alter the position of airport ground vehicles and adjust the jetways at the terminal to fit the aircraft you are using.

I am using this download airport scenery and some how someone figured a way to do this using the Nav1 radio frequency to load a pre-configured scenery of the the jetway along with vehicles to surround your plane servicing it before a flight.

Does anyone have any clue how this done?

Don't know what this guy did to do this, but I am trying to figure it out.

so i see now ... no one has ever messed with ground vehicle scenery so no one knows how to alter it!

i have not heard from the guy that made the scenery that does the above! So until then We all will stay in the dark on this one! Atleast just me!

I have seen aircraft that while at the gate engines off that look just like the first picture I downloaded A FEDEX DC-10 that had all of the support equipment as seen in the first picture. complete with the correct logo's .Maybe that is what is happening here.
I also have used AFCAD to move jetways with I am not sure if you can move ground support equipment. If it is part of the airport scenery you might be able to. But if it is part of an airplane's model than all bets are off. 8)

I went to the LAGO website and downloaded a program called "FS Enhancer 2004". It allowed me to insert any ground support vehicle and postion it anywhere I wanted it to  be next to the aircraft. as well as place the jetways in perfect position for any type of aircraft I fly! You can edit (move) the jet way so that it fits any type of plane you bring to the gate. WAY COOL  Grin!

Check out this practice shot at JFK that I did with the FSE2k4 program!

With the full version installed (once they give me the info I need) I can place mad equipment around the plane. With FSE2k4 i can also take those empty airports and rebuild them to my liking! Which is real cool  Grin! I think Microsoft deliberately left some airstrips blank so that you would use 3rd party programs to design an airport your own style! This program lets you put down your own taxiway and runway lighting as well as terminals and towers, jetways and all type of emergency equipment and service equipment at the airports.  Shocked

They were right when they said this would get addictive. How many places have you been to in Flight Simulator and said wouldn't be cool if this was here! Now you can put it there with FS Enhancer 2004 real cool !
