Aircraft parking position
« on: October 14, 2012, 02:39:51 am »
Hello,

When starting a new flight from LSZH at gate E46 using my LEVEL-D 767 aircraft, the nose landing gear is positioned at 747 parking location. Is there a way to position the aircraft at its proper location which in this case would be the 767 parking position? Any help would be much appreciated. I'm presently running the trial version.

Regards,

Karl

The parking position method FSX uses it's based on the center of the parking as defined in the AFCAD. FSX doesn't handle different airplane stopping positions and doesn't recognize the airplane too so, it will always position any airplane with its center in the center of the parking spot. FSX doesn't know anything about different stopping positions, especially when made with custom textures like most of 3rd party addons.
