Hi iniBuilds Team,

I would like to report an issue with the stand parking alignment and jetway geometry at VHHH.

In the current scenery, the jetways extend unusually far towards the aircraft, and the ground stop/parking markings are placed significantly further away from the terminal compared to the real airport. As a result, the aircraft has to park much farther from the building in the sim, and the jetway appears extremely long and angled, instead of looking almost perpendicular to the aircraft as it does in real life.

To illustrate this:

In my MSFS screenshot (e.g. Gate 34), the aircraft nose is well ahead of the red/white stand markings and the jetway is stretched out at a shallow angle to reach the door.

In the real‑world reference photos and satellite images, the stop line is much closer to the terminal, and the jetway connects to the aircraft with a short, almost 90‑degree angle. The parking position and stand markings are therefore noticeably different from the current scenery.

This issue is not only present at Gate 32 – several other gates at Terminal 1 appear to have the same problem, although I have not checked every stand individually due to the large number of gates.

Simulator: MSFS 2024
Scenery: iniBuilds VHHH Hong Kong International Airport
Issue location: Passenger stands at Terminal 1 (for example Gate 32; other nearby gates show similar behaviour)

I have attached:

A top‑down MSFS screenshot showing the current stand markings and jetway extension.

Real‑world photos taken from the terminal, showing how close the aircraft parks to the building.

Satellite images showing the true relationship between the stop line, jetway and aircraft.

I hope you can review the stand layout and jetway lengths and adjust the parking positions to better match the real VHHH stands in a future update.

Best regards,

Shing

I write a wrong Gate

Noted and passed along to the team, thank you.

i have the same problem

Indeed. I think the wrong parking and jetway issue should the top priority to be fixed because this is the biggest issue that all users able aware of it. It is annoying when seeing my A346's tail is already out of the ramp on the taxiway.

Hi,

We just released v1.1.0 which brought multi-jetway capabilities. Ensure both the airport and included gsx file are up to date.

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your reply.

I’ve already updated to the latest GSX profile, but the aircraft is still parked (N66) super far from the terminal and doesn’t match the real-world stand position. At VHHH in reality, the L1 door should line up with the first jetway. As you can see from the picture, however, the L1 door is actually positioned behind the second jetway.

Thanks for your feedback. I'll pass this along to the team for further investigation.

Thanks!
