I notice that all the military versions (liveries) do not display the tail boom (Red arrow)
I didn't see the boarding ladder (Orange arrow) either.
I'm using the P3d V3.4 series sim. I think Shift + E+ 1 will display the tail boom - no mention in the owners manual on how to display any of this stuff.

Edit: found a spot in the cockpit to activate the crew ladder. That will only make the fwd crew ladder appear after which I do a shift E and the ladder moves against the door and the tail strut
will appear. Still no rear ladder as shown in pic below.

I picked up this model on sale at Flightsim.com this morning at about half price. It's an exceptional value, it looks and flies great! BTW, is anyone doing (or perhaps already done) a VC-54C Sacred Cow repaint?
 
Rear Pax stairs no show

This is in P3D V3.4 - When click on item #3, the crew ladder appears and then SHIFT E will move the ladder up against the front door and the tail boom/strut appears. No rear Pax ladder.

That works :encouragement: Thanks JD. I overlooked that spot on the copilots dash area. Now when I am in a C-54 with twin doors on the rear, it looks like the rear ladder is not an option.
The other aircraft with a single door will show a "hide/show passenger ladder" when I hover my mouse arrow over that spot on the upper co-pilots dash - but not so with twin cargo doors
in the aft section - Guess that was the intended results.

Thanks a lot for that and letting me know.

Appreciate it :encouragement:

There are two different Sacred Cow repaints here on SOH for FR C-54 available - one of Truman´s and one of Roosevelt`s time.

Thanks Thomas! I actually found them right after I made that post. Great work!
