This is my Profile for Aerosoft Frankfurt

The whole Airport is complete with the features you can find below.

This profile is made for the Payware by Aerosoft found >>>here<<<
This profile also comes with the Scenery package, but you’ll always find the latest version here. We can push updates to fs.to more quickly

Important

To avoid overlapping VDGS, use either the Aerosoft VDGS or the GSX VDGS, but not both. To disable the Aerosoft VDGS, simply turn it off in the configuration settings or the .bgl under aerosoft-airport-eddf-frankfurt\scenery\EDDF_VDGS\

What's included?

-> Custom vehicle placement

-> Custom pushback positioning and naming

-> VDGS placement where it is needed

-> Custom De-Ice pads

-> custom jetway root floorheights where needed

-> custom stop positions per aircraft type at every stand

-> custom sorting of Gates and Stands

How to install

You will find four subfolders:

- Full Variant: Includes walking passengers.
- LITE Variant: Does not include walking passengers (better for performance).
Each variant is available in two versions:

Aerosoft VDGS
GSX VDGS

Important: If you are using the GSX VDGS, make sure to disable the Aerosoft VDGS in the configuration settings.

Installation Instructions:

Place the provided .ini and .py files into %appdata%/virtuali/GSX/MSFS.
Ensure that only one version of the EDDF-Aerosoft.ini and eddf-aerosoft.py file is installed.

Setup Guide – VATSIM CID / ONLY WORKS WITH GSX VDGS!

Option 1 (Recommended)

Load into Frankfurt (EDDF)
A setup window will automatically open on first use
Enter your VATSIM CID
Confirm → Done

Option 2 (Manual Setup)

Open the file:
```
EDDF-Aerosoft_handler.py
```
Locate the CID setting
Enter your VATSIM CID manually
Save the file

How to report a problem?

If you have a problem with the installation or there is something wrong with the profile, please let me know either here or on our Community Discord. I will make sure to help in any way I can.

If you know more about the ground operations, I am trying to replicate, please let me know so I can improve my work and bring you the best possible profile.

Hi, thanks for the update.

I’ve installed the latest 2.4 update and unfortunately the issue is still there. I also disabled the Aerosoft VDGS and even removed the VDGS folder, but the main display is still blank. Only the bottom status line (Boarding, Fuel, Cargo, etc.) is shown.

I’ll attach some screenshots so you can see the issue.

Thanks again for your help!

Hi Jk, great work with the GSX-Profile, it's priceless and a must have for an airport like EDDF.

Should you accept suggestions for further updates, then I'd love to propose the following:

- it would be great if the -B Gates ( 66B, 62B, 58B & 54B) got working jetways. In the real world the middle jetway connects to A/C parked at those -B Gates. Right now GSX tells me that it has "Bad Jetway Data". Also for this to work the high A380 Jetways would have to be moved slightly to the west. I'm not sure if, this can be done with a GSX Profile or if Aerosoft has to move the models/objects themself.
- The display panel and the docking sensors are the other way around and they are installed at the middle jetway, not at the high A380 jetway. The sensor is installed above the display panel as shown in the pics below.
- All Gates A69-A50 (incl. -B & -A) are used exclusively by Lufthansa. Not even Lufthansa Group or Star Alliance airlines use them.
- A14-A40 (even ones) are used by Lufthansa Group airlines (incl ITY) + CFG,BTI,AEE,OAW
- AEE, CFG, SWR, AUA, OCN mostly use the latter A-Gates A26-A40.
- A22 & A20 are exclusively used by DLH & UAL (A19, A23 & A25 most likely as well, but I'm not 100% sure about this)
- V144 & V143 are used by Lufthansa Group airlines only but mostly by DLH and sometimes OCN.
It'd be awesome if you could include these changes!

Should you have any questions just drop me a DM.

Thanks!

Hi Haui,

thank you for your recommendations!

Unfortunately, due to an MSFS limitation, it is currently only possible to have one active jetway per gate. The A Main and B Gates are positioned so close to each other that, due to a MSFS limitation, only one jetway can currently be assigned to these positions. Therefore, the jetway for the Main/A position is being used.

This is caused by limitations within MSFS and cannot be resolved through the profile itself. Umberto is currently working on an update that will introduce multi-jetway support, so it may be possible to use both jetways in the future.

I’ll also update the position of the VDGS screens in the next update. I wasn’t aware of their exact positioning before, but now I know where they are supposed to be.

For the airline-specific gate assignments, I’m using an updated file from VATSIM Germany. I’ll also update the airline assignments based on this file in the next update.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Same issue as saif below, for me. I get the VDGS start screen and the info which task is running at the bottom, but the main info remains black. I am on the latest VDGS main version. Issue only occurs at EDDF.

Hello,
I'm having an issue with the Official GSX Profile | EDDF Frankfurt | Aerosoft.
I use MSFS 2024, GSX Pro, and SimBrief. The profile is installed correctly, and everything works fine at other airports.
However, at Aerosoft EDDF, the VDGS only shows the bottom status line (for example: Boarding, Fuel, Cargo, etc.). The main display in the middle remains blank and does not show any information such as the flight number, TOBT, stand guidance, or other flight details.
I've already tried reinstalling the official profile, but the issue is still there. Since this only happens at EDDF, I was wondering if there is a known issue or if there is something else I should check.
Could someone please help me?
Thank yo

Hi, I disabled the option "disabled static docks", so at the E-Gates for example the GSX-VDGS for E5 and E5A for example, overlaps. This is a problem at many gates. Can you fix this.

jk2304Author

Hi, the option is enabled for exactly this reason. Otherwise the VDGS will be overlapped. Currently there's no other solution for this.

I cant find where i have to enter the Vatsim CID. I opened the file as told in the instructions but there is no CID setting.

Hi, please look at EDDF-Aerosoft_handler.py and search for line 9. userVarVATSIMCID = ''

Will the profile be updated for the Terminal 2 closure? T2 positions are now "without" jetways on the C, D and E gates/stands and are using bus boarding and deboarding only :)

Or an alternative profile. That is, a complete layout as it currently exists, including jet bridges, and an alternative profile that includes only stairs and bus deboarding. After all, this only affects the gates/stands at D and E. The gates at C are not affected, as they belong to Terminal 1 and are physically separated from Terminal 2 by doors and walls.

Hi, I'm back from vacation and will update the profile in the next week.

Hi gvert, I've just released the update for the profile. Users can now decide which profile they'd like to use. I guess thats the best option.

It's such great work for this huge airport, and the integration of ACDM @ VATSIM takes it to a whole new level of immersion.
Thank you so much!
