Parking Positions ?

Hi everybody.

Well, a passenger plane should ask for a gate, not a parking. If in the menu you don't have the option to receive a gate it means either that there are no gates in that airport (unlikely, unless you landed in a GA airport) or that all the gates are at that moment occupied by other planes.

To put a "patch" at that you can add more gates to a given airport with AFCAD (the program) or searching on the various sites (like this one) for a better AFCAD file (with more gates and parkings) for the airport you plan to use.

this happens with some planes from iFDG and projectopensky.

I wonder if perhaps the planes you are using are set as cargo types in their respective aircraft.cfg files. I noticed that the default 747 adds the line "atc_parking_types=CARGO" in the fltsim.0 section for the Global Freightways livery and omits it for all of the rest.

Hope this helps...Good luck
