Bowvisor Albatros IV.
« on: March 29, 2011, 19:56:24 »

When I have raised the bowvisor of the Albatros IV I don't see any lowered loading ramp and the collision bulkhead door behind it. Ferries do usually have the loading ramp behind the bowvisor and as an extra safety feature a collision bulkhead door behind the loading ramp. Why don't I see any loading ramp/collision bulkhead door here?

At the control panels of the bowvisor and stern ramps I see two levers, the upperleft one for raising/lowering the bow visor and the upperright one for raising/lowering the stern ramp. At the lower left of the control panel I see a switch. When I press on either side of the switch, nothing happens. What is the function of this switch at the lower left?

I think there should be a loading ramp - the picture Swenson showed before it came out featured a lowered one...

so not sure where it has gone...

Maybe it went with the Red Eagles doors*...

*Though they have returned to us... :doh:
