timbuktuz Posted January 20, 2022 Report Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) This has happened in 30% of my flights. At start of flight, I exit the FBO and click on the button to the door handle. I hear the square door above open but door remains closed. It appears to be random, but I consistently have the problem at KPHX (default X-plane). I also have experienced issues opening the cabin door at the end of a flight. I pull the lever on right hand side and push the door. It starts to open then immediately closes. Anyone else seeing this behavior? Log.txt CL650_Log.txt Edited January 24, 2022 by skiselkov
ois650 Posted January 20, 2022 Report Posted January 20, 2022 The door won't magically open when you pull out the handle. You must rotate it and then pull down on the top of the door. At the end of the flight, make sure to give it a good push, clicking or pushing for a second won't be enough to open it. KR
Pils Posted January 20, 2022 Report Posted January 20, 2022 Or there’s still pressure in the aircraft!
timbuktuz Posted January 20, 2022 Author Report Posted January 20, 2022 Most of the time I have no problem opening the door from either outside or inside, so I am sure I know how. I thought it might be left over pressure as well.
Graeme_77 Posted January 21, 2022 Report Posted January 21, 2022 This could be caused by cabin differential pressure - I'm looking for cases that could cause that, but should the situation occur again, please post a screenshot of the Pressurization Control Study window (Under the Challenger 650 \ Study \ Environmental menu) 1 1
timbuktuz Posted January 21, 2022 Author Report Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) Screen shot of Pressurization Control in KPHX. BTW, I was able to workaround issue by creating a new airframe if that helps. Edited January 21, 2022 by timbuktuz
Graeme_77 Posted January 21, 2022 Report Posted January 21, 2022 Thanks. This confirms the issue is a pressurised cabin. Most likely caused by repositioning an aircraft from a low altitude airport to high altitude. I know PHX is not really that high, but enough to cause sufficient deltaP to prevent door opening. The developers will investigate the issue and potentially adapt the persistence logic to deal with this. In the mean time, jump inside the aircraft using the normal X-Plane view controls, power it up and start the APU and bleeds in the normal sense and the cabin pressure control should take over and fix the situation.
