PFPX and airport gates/parking positions

Featured Replies

I am about to purchase PFPX and was wondering if it has a "gate loader" functionality.   In FS9 I would use FSBuild and then gatekeeper to ensure that when I loaded the flightplan in FS9 start menu, I would be at the appropriate gate.  For addon airports, payware etc., I recall I had to move the AFCAD.bgl into the addon scenery folder, so that gatekeeper would recognize the appropriate and respective airline gates.

 

How do you make the flightplan load and position the aircraft at the correct gate using PFPX within FSX?

 

Thanks!

Almost certain this isn't possible - PFPX just produces a dispatch and Flight Plan in the popular formats for loading into the aircraft of your choice. The only option that's available for taking into account a gate position is to vary the amount of taxi  fuel available. 

You'd make a Flight Plan, then use FSX to position the aircraft at the gate of choice.
