"Exit"

[Tom Clayton]

In P3D, I understand you can have your "avatar" take a ground vehicle to your plane, exit that, then get into the plane and fly. I don't need that, but one of the more satisfying aspects of FS9 was sitting in the VC while I opened the canopy or door at the end of a long flight. I miss that in this new sim. If this sounds strange, well, just consider the source!

I agree! Not on the source, but the not having an exit. Part of a C&D start was lowering the canopy.

While "EXIT OPEN" has been "deprecated" in the MSFS variables, "CANOPY OPEN" is still there, and so perhaps it can still be used in non-default aircraft models.

I'll have to look for that!
