- All main gates and stands edited with custom vehicle placements.
- H-Stands not edited
- Large gates edited with B789/B748. Medium gates with A320. Small gates (30m) with CRJ900. Small gates (26m) edited with ATR72/CRJ700. Small gates also checked with E-Jets. Hard to get one gate to accomodate 3 different aircraft. FYI :)
- All have custom pushbacks with direction and NR/NL (Nose right/left designation). Used hold points in Navigraph charts for reference.
- Correct handling & catering choices.
- All gates have T1-42 VDGS. Will make one with marshaller if enough people request it.
- Jetway heights adjusted
- De icing pads 1-6. It says in the charts that they enter from taxiway taxiway T and V. So i made them facing west. Exit is via F as a user commented to me below. If GSX had the ability to make different folders for the de-icing i would make more but now its all inside one folder. It would then be 36 pads instead of the 18 there are now.
- The N/S pads are modelled different in the scenery so N is S and S is N. Se picture for direction and stop points. 1-4 are identical to 5-6.
N/S are for small/medium jets. C pads for all aircraft. See Navigraph chart 10-9K for a map of the facility. - Last but not least they have VDGS systems showing stop point. See the arrows next to the pad for direction. On the C pads they are to the left.
- Charts where you find the gates position in Navigraph: 10-9B, 10-9C, 10-9D. Fedex and Cargo Northeast shown i pictures.
- Gates 258-270 are in the Construction area on terminal 1.
- Excel file in the zip file shows all edited gates with Max wingspan and if it's walk-in/jetway gate.
- CYYZ.py file sorts all edited gates into more managable folders instead of sorting through
gate/ramp/parking to find your gate. See picture.
As always you should reposition at the current gate when spawning into the scenery.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Place the .INI file in : \Users\\AppData\Roaming\virtuali\GSX\MSFS
Remember to delete or disable other ini files starting with cyyz. If you wish copy the cyyz.py into the same folder.
If you have any suggestions to make or errors to report give a comment or send me a pm.

Perhaps I can be of help here as I'm an Air Traffic Controller at CYYZ.
What might have confused you on the "no turn from E onto the pads" is that instruction does apply but only for aircraft with wingspan greater than 214' (65m). They can only enter the pads directly from T and V.
All other aircraft can access the facility from E.
The pads are assigned by "Pad Control" and are done in the most efficient way possible to de-ice as many aircraft at any one time, but in line with first come first served principle. Heavies will always use the center lane and where appropriate smaller aircraft (118' or less wingspan) can fit 2 onto the same pad using the N or S lanes, it does not matter which Terminal the aircraft came from. Usually during a heavy de-icing period the queue can extend all the way up E as far as S or R, and its very common for aircraft coming from T1 to taxi up B and start queuing there, before crossing 33R at R or S and then heading down E to enter the pads.
It is not uncommon at all for all 6 pads to be in use at the same time and many of those with 2 aircraft at a time on the N/S lanes. It is theoretically possible to de-ice 12 planes at a time.
The way the facility is constructed means all entry comes from the East via E or T or V and all aircraft exit via Taxilane 1 through T and V onto F. Entry to the facility from the West is not permitted.
