In the Airplanes tab, the airplanes to be used in the taxiway compliance simulation can be selected. Airplane selection can be carried out in three ways:

1. Selecting a group.
2. Browsing the library using the Select Object dialog box.
3. Picking airplanes from an existing session.

Groups (recent list)

At the top of the tab, a list that includes all recently used and saved groups as defined in the Group Manager is available.

Browse for object in library

The Browse button to the right of the Groups list provides access to the Select Object dialog box where objects can be sorted and filtered before selection.

Select object from drawing

The Select object from drawing button to the right of the Browse for object in library button makes it possible to select an existing AviPLAN Airside Pro 2024 session to select any single airplane or a group of airplanes in the drawing. Only airplanes can be selected for Group Path. Once one or more objects have been selected, the Object box(es) will be populated.

Note: The maximum number of airplanes that can be added to a session is 200, but please note that the calculation time required to perform analysis is impacted by the number of selected objects. Accordingly, selecting only critical airplanes after reviewing the Cockpit to main-gear, Main-gear span, and Engine span options for airplanes in the applicable regulatory category/group is recommended.

Append or Replace

Whenever subsequent selections are made using the Groups method above, you will be prompted for confirmation whether to append these additional objects to the existing selection or to replace those already added.

Airplane table

When airplanes are selected using any of the above methods, they will be added to the selection table in the lower portion of the Airplanes tab.

Remove airplane

Removes an airplane from the session by using the button.
