SYD - Post release discussion

I havenā€™t bought S at any of the S/M gates ā€“ only did at S only gates ā€“ but D52/54/56 all have cross walks and are using busses.

D44 has no cross walk in game, but I find it really hard to believe that to access a plane on a jet bridge stand at the terminal you are taking a bus even if the plane isnā€™t compatible with that jet bridge. But what do I know? We Americans have a distaste for not using jet bridges haha!

This is why I wanted them to add the Qantas link bae146, but apparently that wonā€™t work so weā€™re doomed

THE DH8D DOES NOT USE JETWAYS AT ANY AIRPORTS. Thanks :grin:

  1. You donā€™t need to yell in all caps lol.

  2. This is a provably false statement. Its actually wasnā€™t uncommon for the DH8D to arrive at a jetbridge in the United States and Canada.

In fact, here is a great video that even shows the Jet Bridge being put into place at Vancouver ā€“ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiCBvRExQms

Hereā€™s another image from Montreal (not mine) -

Hereā€™s another (also not mine)!

If you also look at the image @horsepowergeek posted, the DH8D is connected via a Gantry.

It does happen, and itā€™s not uncommon. I flew Alaska DH8Ds everywhere as a kid ā€“ mostly because it was for a time the only airplane type flying into my home airport. Iā€™ve boarded it via a jet bridge lots!

Also - that picture is meant to show busses being used at gates where people can walk via the crosswalk into the terminal. Busses arenā€™t needed.

Also - perhaps something has changed or itā€™s a bug with a specific stand. My B463 at gate D1 did use a jet bridge!

Depends on when you last rested with the BAe, it couldā€™ve been fixed since then

Wait, Iā€™m not missing context or anything right? BAEs absolutely use jetbridges at SYD

They donā€™t in the game noā€¦ but they should because it happens all the time in real life
