How is the "open door" event implimented? - chatman - 26-08-2005

Hi!

Today I made aflight an instead of unloading the PAX through menu I opened the door to let them off the plane. Thereafter I started a new flight but
forgot about the door. I realized it when upon takeoff roll the passengers fear rose and my Co pilot told me about it.
I immediatly closed the door and it was shut before i was in the air.
still my passengers were horrified and I had to declare emergeny and finaly got badly penalized. also the wind was blowing through my cockpit the
whole flight.

Now I understand that starting with an open door in a bad beginning for the fligh so passenger opinion and a penalty is justified. but is there a way
to handle the event differently when on ground than in the air? I mean it was not as if I had pressed Shift-E at FL 350. In fact the flight itself
was quite normal.

So, in other words, taking off with an open door is not as bad as opening it while airborne? Wonder

read my post again: i didn't take off with the door open - closed it still on ground. so technically an emergency declaration was not necessary but
required by FSP

Rolling down the runway with the door open isn't normal either though is it? Even if you do close it before you take off.
