Please note that this only hides the door for GSX, it will still be fully functional in the sim. I also disabled door 5L to prevent GSX to place stairs at this door, as PMDG uses 5L for the cabin services truck (cleaners). This door will still be serviced by a PMDG vehicle as GSX doesn’t allow more than two catering trucks. The AFT galleys will actually be supplied through door 4L on the opposite side. I customized the GSX profile to ensure catering is being loaded through 1R and 2R. More details at the bottom of this post.Īlthough the most recent GSX update adds the PMDG 747 variants to its internal database, galley services (catering) are still being done through doors 1R and 5R, which isn’t very realistic on a B744 as there’s usually no galley in the tail section. Put my customized GSX Aircraft files into the respective folder as per included readme.txt. Update GSX to the most recent major version (1.9.9.11 or newer) as this will prevent GSX from removing any PMDG ground vehicles and it adds the PMDG 747v3 to its internal database to provide some basic compatibility. This will see the Queen being surrounded by an appropriate number of servants, exactly how it should be ) This will give you GSX’ fully animated ULD/pallet and catering loading, including realistic vehicle and container logos based on airline/airport, while retaining PMDG’s additional vehicles like cabin services, maintenance van and any extra cargo loaders which won’t be possible when running GSX exclusively as it still only supports a maximum of two catering trucks and two cargo loaders.
