An exciting new feature comes to FlightGear with the completion of [[User:Skyop|Skyop's]] [[Howto: Animated jetways|animated jetway system]]. The first | An exciting new feature comes to FlightGear with the completion of [[User:Skyop|Skyop's]] [[Howto: Animated jetways|animated jetway system]]. The first airports to implement it are none other than KLAS and KRNO. A bug is currently preventing the jetways from appearing in [[FlightGear 2.0.0]]; when a new version of the system is available through [[TerraSync]] within a couple days, [[Howto: Animated jetways#Usage|an additional fix]] will be required. | ||
To use the system, taxi to an animated jetway and park your aircraft with your nosegear on the "T" at the end of the marking line. Click the jetway, and if your aircraft has the appropriate values in its <tt>-set.xml</tt> file, the jetway will extend and raise/lower itself to your door! Updated <tt>-set.xml</tt> files for the [[Boeing 737-300]], [[Boeing 747-400]], and [[Boeing 777-200ER]] can be downloaded from [http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8728&start=90#p91826 this post] of the development thread. | To use the system, taxi to an animated jetway and park your aircraft with your nosegear on the "T" at the end of the marking line.

Unfortunately, there are still a few unresolved issues with the jetways. The biggest being that they currently cannot operate independently. | Unfortunately, there are still a few unresolved issues with the jetways. The biggest being that they currently cannot operate independently. | ||

[[User:Skyop|Skyop]] has modeled Concourse A, Concourse B, Concourse C, and the Charter International Terminal at Las Vegas McCarran International Airport (KLAS). Unfortunately, the new Concourse D could not be modeled as there was no [[GPL]]-compatible satellite imagery available. You can obtain the new terminals via [[TerraSync]]. | [[User:Skyop|Skyop]] has modeled Concourse A, Concourse B, Concourse C, and the Charter International Terminal at Las Vegas McCarran International Airport (KLAS).

[[User:Skyop|Skyop]] has also modeled the passenger terminal at Reno International Airport (KRNO). It will be submitted into the [[FlightGear Scenery Database]] and available through [[TerraSync]] soon. | |||
