Great question and I am happy that this issue is being discussed.
Here in Adelaide, South Australia as I imagine it would be with many other airports, we have a company Regional Express (REX) Airlines who have a specific parking area at the Adelaide airport YPAD (10A? to 10F) for example. When I land at YPAD and contact ground they always seem to send me to some old unused parking area at the back of the airport.
I am using AusceneX Adelaide scenery and the aircraft of concern is the SAAB 340 series which are used by this particular company.
If I fly other airline liveries eg. Qantas, Jetstar or Virgin I seem, in the main get sent to an appropriate gate at the new terminal although on occasion I also get sent to some small parking bay at the back.
As I understand FSX has the ability to recognize the aircraft type small or heavy and select the appropriate ramp or gate. I have been in the aircraft config file and not wanting to change much as I don't really know what I am doing, seen that the cfg file lists parking as Ramp or Gate etc but is that just any gate or ramp?
Can we set it to a specific ramp or ramps?
Thanks guys
Paul
