Main DC-3 cabin door

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have been unable to get the main DC-3 cabin door to open. I know about the switch under the red cover that you use to get the service truck and stewardess outside the door, but I cannot get the door to open. Someone previously suggested Ctrl + E, but that starts the engine. The forward cargo door opens with Shft + E, and usually on other airplanes you open additional doors by adding 2 or 3, but that doesn't work here. That just causes the main panel or radio panel to pop up. How do you open the main cabin door? Help!

	Hi, a suggestion i saw on another forum is to assign another key to open doors instead of shift e. i assigned x so now if i want to open other doors its x + 2, x+3 etc. much easier instead of having to press three keys and since i ve done it i ve never had a problem opening the door of my choice. regards
