This mod was designed to enhance parking spots at Aerosoft EDDF Frankfurt Airport.

Aerosoft has done an awesome job at recreating Frankfurt Am Main Airport for MSFS. It´s a must buy scenery!

Unfortunately, this scenery has some few drawbacks:

- Overlapping parking radius that do not allow AI aircraft to park side by side at some gates;
- Missing parking spots at new Terminal 03. Although not yet operational, it has been used IRL to supplement the number of parking stands needed for the wide bodies;
- Faulty airline parking codes assignment

After hours and hours tracking real planes at Frankfurt Airport with FlightRadar24.com, it was possible to determine with accuracy the exact location where each aircraft type / airline park.  

Features:

• New parking spots added according to EDDF Aerodrome Ground Movement Chart (AIP Germany);
• Accurate parking radius for AI Traffic (AIG and FSLTL);
• Airline parking codes assigned for all gates and ramps:
   - Special care with AI A380s (Emirates now parks at gate E5, Singapore parks at gate B46 and Asiana parks at gate B26);
   - F221 to F225 and V266 to V270 now used by Lufthansa in order to supplement the number of parking stands needed for its narrow bodies;
   - Star Alliance members now prioritize parking at Terminal 01, from gate A1 to A69 (Lufthansa, Aegean, Austrian, LOT, SAS, Swiss, TAP, United, etc.);
  - International cargo carriers, such as Asiana Cargo, China Cargo Airlines, Cathay Pacific Cargo, Emirates Cargo, Korean Air Cargo, LATAM Cargo, Qatar Cargo, etc., now use K2 to K10 and V322 to V328 parking stands
• Compatible with BeyondATC - fixed in version 1.1.0 (unfortunately, BATC Traffic Injection does not read airline codes from airport scenery. It uses its own gate assignments which is very flawed)
