Hi Reece,

Addon Airports often use Parking Codes: Gates ramps and parking places at an airport can have attributed to them special codes that signify a particular operator like UPS or DHL will park there.

The addon aircraft would specify its own parking code within the aircraft config file per livery variation:

[fltsim.0]
atc_parking_codes=DHL

The sim AI system will attempt to start this aircraft at a ramp with corresponding code.

With IF10 and IF10 Pro, when we use an aircraft with Parking Codes specified in the cfg, and we start at an addon airport with codes attached to parking places, IF10 will attempt to place the newly selected aircraft on one of those places. So if you are flying a DHL livery IF10 will start you in a DHL parking place if one exists at the departure airport. IF10 only does this when we 'Select' a new aircraft or 'Move' to a new location.
