INTERESTING .... ad thanks also Dan ! When I was quoting the assigning of CONCORDE VISOR commands within FS OPTIONS .... and then precise keystrokes too .... I actually thought Matt was referring to the opening of the port side maindeck cargo door (on freighter/combi/convertible configured B707 aircraft) rather than those starboard side lower fuselage baggage/freight compartments.

Good morning Mark; Actually, I was (you were correct)...and I still haven't been able to open that door But at least now we can get the luggage aboard! That new gauge does help with opening the 722F main deck door. Matt

This reply is for the benefit of everyones understanding generally .... rather than a specific response to Matt's current problem.
REMEMBER .... not all of the HJG B707/720 models are equipped with animated port side forward fuselage maindeck cargo doors. Those models that are so equipped .... are named as follows ....
B707-120
MODEL.120_CARGO - Features .... Ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. P&W turbojet engines. Early nose gear door configuration. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door. N.B. This model is an ARCA COLOMBIA and PHOENIX AIRWAYS B707-120F "exclusive" .... for rare B707-120 (F) aircraft conversion textures.
B707-120B/F
MODEL (standard basepack inclusion) - Features .... Ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. P&W fanjet engines. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door. N.B. This model is an AEROCONDOR COLOMBIA B707-120BF "exclusive" .... for rare B707-120B (F) aircraft conversion textures.
B707-320
MODEL.CARGO - Features .... Ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. P&W turbojet engines. Lengthened fuselage. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door .... for rare B707-320 (F) aircraft conversion textures.
B707-320B
MODEL.SCD - Features .... No ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. Lengthened fuselage. P&W turbojet engines. Full span leading edge Kruger Flaps. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door. N.B. This model is a rare NORTHWEST/ORIENT AIRLINES texture "exclusive" .... also used for ex NORTHWEST/ORIENT AIRLINES B707-320B COMBI textures.
B707-320C
PLEASE NOTE .... all HJG B707-320C models feature animated port side forward fuselage cargo doors.
MODEL - Features .... No ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. Lengthened fuselage. P&W turbojet engines. Full span leading edge Kruger Flaps. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door.
MODEL.323C - Features .... No ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. Lengthened fuselage. P&W turbojet engines. Full span leading edge Kruger Flaps. Different #1 & #4 engine pylons. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door. N.B. This model is an AMERICAN AIRLINES and ex AMERICAN AIRLINES B707-323C texture "exclusive".
MODEL.323C_S2HK - Features .... No ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. Lengthened fuselage. P&W fanjet engines with Stage 2 Hush Kit modification. Full span leading edge Kruger Flaps. Different #1 & #4 engine pylons. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door. N.B. This model is for Hush Kitted ex AMERICAN AIRLINES B707-323C aircraft only.
MODEL.HK3 - Features .... No ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. Lengthened fuselage. Modern long duct nacelle type P&W turbojet engines. Full span leading edge Kruger Flaps. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door. N.B. This model is an AIR MEMPHIS "exclusive".
MODEL.S2HK - Features .... No ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. Lengthened fuselage. P&W fanjet engines with Stage 2 Hush Kit modification. Full span leading edge Kruger Flaps. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door.
B720-020B
MODEL.CARGO - Features .... Ventral fin. Tall tail. VHF tail antenae. Early type P&W fanjet engines with small sucker doors. Operating forward fuselage maindeck cargo door. Early nose gear door configuration. N.B. This model is an ECUATORIANA CARGO texture "exclusive".
The above summary lists "THE ONLY" HJG B707/720 models equipped with animated port side forward fuselage cargo doors. All of the other HJG B707/720 models are not equipped with this feature.
In presenting this summary I just want be be sure these details are actually understood .... and that folk aren't expecting all of these aircraft to be "cargo door equipped".
In the event that a wong texture is applied to these freighter/combi models .... then this would be evident by the fact that most of the fuselage textures (which are mapped/named specifically for freighter/combi models) would fail to display at all.

I have a question myself with regards to the maindeck door for cargo.
I am running the v7 707-320C v7 in FSX (sp2, no accel) and I followed all the instructions here to figure out my baggage doors. I used the gauge and they work fine.
I still cannot get the maindeck door to work however. If I am reading the list above correctly the 320Cs should all have a working main deck door.
I am trying to use this main door on a 320C painted for 1974 pan am cargo.
The gauge solution allows me to toggle a "third" door, but nothing animates. Only the main passenger and lower cargo doors really open The attached image shows the gauge showing 3 doors actuated, but only 2 are open. The concorde visor assigment isnt working either.
Thanks

For all of the port side forward fuselage maindeck cargo door equipped B707's (B707-120F, -120BF, -320F, -320B SCD, -320C, and B720-BF) the following (FS2004) instructions .... which require an FS keyboard assignment being manually activated .... "should be sufficient" to get these doors operating properly for you ....
The port side forward fuselage maindeck cargo door animation should work in FSX also .... so far as I'm aware .... BUT .... I don't run FSX in order to be able to confirm this.

Mark C AKL/NZ No worries. I'll press ahead. The baggage doors were the biggest thing as was mentioned by others in the original part of the thread Thank you for the data in the thread on models. Being new around here I am curious in general if most hjg fliers stick with fs2004 ? I noticed most a/c are converted. I have done that in the past to fly some older aircraft. I'm wondering if it would add value to my experience to run these in 04. I noticed in a screen cap in another thread that there were prop-liner ai or scenery in the background and it all looked like 2004 stuff. Does anyone find that that fs2004 supports era type environments better? At any rate the rest of my 320c is doing great in fsx, avionics included, so I may look into other items for 04, but have lots left to fly in fsx . Thanks again.
