737 Ground Handling Switcher | v1.2.2

---

NOTE: I have discontinued development of GHS upon release of Umberto's excellent GSX addon.

I know you guys were expecting more- I was too. all donations have been returned. Thank you deeply and sincerely for your unending support and I'll see you over on the next product I create.

Tired of boring old PMDG-branded ground handling?

permanent discord link: https://discord.gg/SEfY9BbrAV

Using this lightweight program, you can quickly switch between airline ground handling liveries (baggage carts, baggage loaders, and tractors for now) of twelve worldwide 737-700 operators! Fictional operators will be coming soon!

Installation is easy: download, unzip the folder where you like it, and run GroundHandlingSwitcher.exe whenever you want to switch airlines!

Join the discord if you have problems with liveries - we are testing with multiple awesome users to fix unforeseen issues right now, we can work on yours too!

A small number of users have persistent issues with pink and black squared textures. If you are one of them, download the repair pack and drag the Community folder contained within onto your Community folder to reset to PMDG liveries. I hope to have this fixed soon but it is difficult to track down. You can also repair your 737 install with the PMDG installer.

Road to 1.3 (release: expected before 15 July 2022)

sorry for the delay. I initially expected to have this out roughly a week ago but I have been searching for a job which has taken up all of my free time between applications and interviews. Job market is rough right now in IT.

new airlines are final!

- adding community requested airlines: FDB (FlyDubai),  EXS (Jet2), AAA (Ansett), AFR (Air France), AAL (American Airlines)

- adding airlines from PMDG 3.0 update fictional liveries: KLM (Royal Dutch Airlines), ACA (Air Canada), BAW (British Airways), NKS (Spirit Airlines)

- custom liveries support with basic tools to make it easy to create and save your favorite airlines

- separate U.S. and EU non-airline ground services replacement (cleaning, catering, plus generic sets for loaders, carts, and tractors)

- hopefully the first collaboration with another flightsim.to creator. Contact me. We will add your donate buttons.

- stability improvements, bug fixes, UI updates - thanks to all the amazing testers helping me out to achieve this.
