I installed the latest update from today, 1.11.3 and I noticed the bug for not being able to stop pushback is still there. I keep clicking “ground services” but nothing happens. I think they just want to push me into the San Francisco bay while at KSFO.
Shift+P toggles pushback on and off. It works anywhere, even if there’s no pushback cart / truck. You don’t need to go into the Ground Services menu.
There’s also a neat little freeware tool called Pushback Helper (I think - not at my home computer atm to check). You run the external program and can toggle it on and off with your Page Up key, and you can activate / cancel pushback, as well as steer the direction of pushback.
Thank you. I’ll give it a try next time.
it’s not stopping that gets me is the auto pushback I deal with? I didn’t ask for it but it happens… rather frustrating
Make sure your AI copilot isn’t managing communications because it will automatically order pushback.
Another way to stop pushback when it gets locked is to temporarily give the co-pilot control of the plane then take it back.
Ah. I never thought about giving control to the co-pilot. Thanks.
Unfortunately I tried that. Everyone’s suggestions about shift-p worked though.
that was it
