@Marcus Nyberg Do you have any info about the update for ESKS regarding the parking spot issue I pointed out?
-
Here is a screenshot from my sim in clear weather (FSLTL/AIG traffic) Hope it helps!

I can address those issues except that I've got no clue about the ESNU ATC issue. I've reviewed the taxiway system multiple times and can't on earth understand why it refers to the terminal area as GA-parking and doesn't give you a specific terminal parking. I'll see if I got some clever collegues that might know the issue.
@Marcus Nyberg I know the solution! For a parking you can define a 'Name' and a 'Type'. The type is i.e. 'Ramp_GA_Large or 'Gate_Small'. This needs to be adjusted at ESKS, where remote parkings need to be of type 'Ramp_GA_Large'.
At ESNU the name is 'Parking'. When naming these like this MSFS ATC will always instructs 'General Aviation Parking'. If you change the name to 'Gate' so i.e. Gate 1 with type 'Ramp_GA_Large' both stairs wil come up and ATC instructs you correctly to Gate 1.

Below some screenshots:
- 1 from ESSA, where a remote parking is defined OK
-1 from ESNU, where the remote parking is not defined OK
Hope it helps!

Thanks for spotting this.
I assume this is at ESKS - that's where I'm seeing it.
The perils of working on 3 airports at one time!
Not sure but I suspect that in trying to solve a different issue with ATC at ESNU the designations at ESKS got changed.
Then again the memory ain't what it used to be
All the best,
John
Hi John, yes indeed I checked ESKS... Did not have time to check the orher airports yet...

@Marcus Nyberg Thanks for these wonderful airports! One request: can you please change the parking types from gate_small to ramp_ga_large? ATC won't give you stairs on a gate since it is expecting a jetway

Brrr It is really looking cold there!

Guys, I sincerely hope you will add the default ground services, although not entirely realistic at this airport. People who don't like it can easily disable them via the MSFS menu. Also please add a bonus stand for the A320neo. A lot of people use it to fly there, although not allowed IRL.

Is a moving DLR train included as well??

There is also a good freeware EGKK available, and always updated. Birmingham is already done by MaccoSimulations. Why not focus on an airport that has not been done yet?

That is how it is set up. You can't add an animated jetway to a spot if it is not labeled as GATE.
I think the problem being the airline labels. Right now there are airline codes for two of the normal parking I just noticed, must have put the codes on the wrong spots for some reason, I can adjust that in a patch to direct them to the gates.
But just to be clear, all jetways are GATES, all other parkings are RAMP. ATC should still direct them to a specific parking, why it is not doing that I have no clue.
Thanks for the explanation. Probably Su10 messed something up then. Anyway the airport is great! Just departed at dawn to Girona and a great take-off on 29 towards the east!

Nice!
We can set airline codes for the gates, might direct the AI there instead. With my testing when they said taxi to general aviation parking they parked at the gates though. Plus there isn't any general aviation parking really, there are just none-gate parkings. The general aviation parking is the area in the east corner of the tarmac (AG01-AG08) but as it interferes with parking 09 they are not enabled in the scenery.
Still a bit confused about the logics of the built in ATC and AI system.
From what I remember you have two properties of a parking, don't know the right terms:
- Parking name (Gate, Parking etc.)
- Parking type (GATE SMALL, GATE MEDIUM, RAMP_GA LARGE etc.)
If the name is set to GATE + number ATC says 'Taxi to gate XXX'. If this is set to parking ATC will refer to General Aviation.

Already departing here! What a nice surprise! @Marcus Nyberg Another aircraft landed and asked ATC to park, but ATC says 'Taxi to GA parking' instead of gate XXX. Can this be fixed in an update?

I am using AIG with real-time on-line AI, and this lays less pressure on performance since it spawns less planes. Having some statics is a fine addition to the immersion

Hi
Yes it's a great airport. Love the moving figures! Works well with the docking system. Performance could be better but there is a lot of detail..
But but but!
I am sorry but this is a problem with other addon airports as well. You are handed off to ground on arrival but then no offer to taxi to a gate. Don't know what you have missed out but it is very irritating!!
Richard
Yes, I noticed the same using the A320neo. Maybe parking spots are too small?

If you are seeing this with the Asobo airport removed (and emptied cache etc.), the developer must publish an update in order to let the airport work...
