No jetway moving!

make sure your parking brakes are set - cntrl + . , and engines turned off - cntrl shift f1 or might be cntrl f1.

have you installed accelration because FSX changes the key mappings so you might have to re assign that command

Hi,

You can get the jetway to come if you park on the yellow line and have your engines off. You press Ctrl+J to get the jetway. It only works on the commercial jets (Boeing 747-400, Boeing 737-800, and the Airbus A321). For the jetways to work, you need to have "Advanced Animations" on.

Hope this helps

My engines are off, never turn em off in meh jumbo. Take forever, the CRJ also has jetties' anims i belive. Park brake ctrl j. I think its the key mapping prob or adv anims. I didn't feel like typing properly today. 🙄

HI there have been a lot of posts on this subject and most of the time it is
the graphics card that is the problem. It tend's to be the older cards that do not suport this function.
Make sure Advanced Animations is switched on.
What graphic card do you have?

If I am correct he already said that he has everything on high and he parks on the line already so that cant be the problem. Either the problem should lie on what the guy told you about installing acceleration or its some type of mapping problem or couldnt really tell what you told me about engines off, but make sure that your engines are off, parking brake set and make sure you go up close to where the yellow line ends. Really depends where you are because some of the ones that are right on the wall are for big planes.

um engines dont have to be off.....i use the jetway all the time and my engines are on. try and get to the gate,stop at the "T" on the yeallow line,apply your parking brakes,hit cntrl+j,and wait a little while. i know that sometimes my jetway can take a few mins. and sometimes it dosnt look like its moving until it extends to the plane. good luck,if all else fails reinstall fsx.....

My jetways on my fsx copy never worked. I got the microsoft official service/acceleration pack and installed it. My jetways now work. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE YOUR GRAPHICS SETTINGS AT MAXIMUM FOR THIS EFFECT TO WORK! Just make sure that the special effects box is checked off. Hope this helps 🙂
