Gate numbers

[Awemeter]

What is the relation between the gate numbers displayed on FlightAware and the gate numbers on the scenery and GSX?

Hi @Awemeter

Services like FlightAware will typically show you the Gate Numbers used inside the terminal (by Passengers) as opposed to the Stand Numbers assigned on the ramp for operational use (by ATC/ Ground Crew/ Pilots etc). At some airports both of these will be the same, but for airpots like OMAA, this is not the case.

Gate Numbers you can typically find by searching for a 'Terminal Map'.

Stand Numbers you can typically find listed on the official Aerodrome Ground charts (e.g. in Navigraph or via the AIP). These are the numbers that GSX Profiles / Scenery uses.

Thanks!
