Hello Flying Friends!

I use FSX.  I recently bought the Sim-Wings/Aerosoft Barcelona airport package and it is a work of beauty!  WOW, what great work they do!

QUESTION:  Do any other airport sceneries for FSX (free or paid) have interactive operational hangar doors / hanger doors that open and close?

I have been told that Paris CDG (new massive A380 hangar, but do the doors
open?) and Heathrow have it, but I am unable to confirm based on the stills and videos.

Thanks!

I know that VFR Short Fields X and SimAddons have a couple of airports that have this feature.

My Bassingbourn WW2 scenery does, because Col. Bates from the virtual 91st BG made the hangars for it (it's their base).

Other than that, if you see any scenery that has doors that open depending on the position of the user aircraft, or user references such as radio settings, that part of the scenery cannot be FSX native. For reasons that will probably never be known, ACES removed the ability to do conditional animations from FSX, so the only way to get them in is to use the FS9 SDK to develop that component.
