John Heaton 669 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 For many years of simming - I have never really felt the need to leave my propped aircraft and venture much above VFR and 10000' - but I recently bought a couple of Biz jets - and have been flying high and fast - interstate OZ and Europe in the bizjets and a B 727 I came across 3 very good freeware aircraft (to my limited Knowledge of "Tubes") - and have been enjoying Long distance in the B787 and The A 380. I only have - the Major Orbx airports - but none seem to have the "double decker "airbridges that services the A 380. I have seen a couple on u tube videos of the aircraft at such gates - but they never say which airport - Orbx or not Any advice anyone ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TigerTigerM 7,312 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Would be interested too. Probably have the same freeware A380 as you, & sometimes wish Orbx would do a few for the heavies. TTM Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TTM Hi Tiger Looks like we did Orbx a disservice I wandered around Brisbane Orbx - and lo and be hold - what looks to be a double decker at GATE 75 - but using it would be a mystery to me. Maybe someone at Orbx might explain that to us if using it is possible Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TigerTigerM 7,312 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 John I've never figured out this SODE stuff. I am flying 747's & 380's a lot recently & then one starts looking around for the 13,000' runways, [I need plenty of runoff] Frankfurt & so on. Though others have done them, it would be nice to get a few Orbx 'large' airports. TTM Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TTM I am the same - and I haven't quite worked out the answer someone kindly gave me the other day https://sode.12bpilot.ch/?page_id=2 I have just found out that I have the ability to have many aircraft around me at an airport - and I have had this Orbx freebie installed for over a year and apparently SODE works all the gubbins - so something else to learn You hinted that you might have got your freebie A380 from the same place as I have Try their B787 and the old B727 - I am having many hours long runs in the B787 - until I can afford the better payware - and the old 727 to reprise many flights around OZ from the 70s Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TigerTigerM 7,312 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Thanks for SODE link. If its the VL 727 then it comes with enough liveries to sink a ship TTM Quote Link to post Share on other sites
