Editing Plane position on Airbase

SOH-CM-2025
Can the position of the aircraft shown beside the pilot on the Quick Combat screen be moved using the mission and facilities editor, I can open the airbase xml in the facilities editor but cant see a reference to the actual aircraft Id like to re-position, I can move all the spawned aircraft around the airbase but not the one I want to move
Any knowledge out there on how I might do it?

Hi Mick,

Yes, it's this entry in the airbase facility files:

<Route Name="taxi_path" Type="NoType">
<Point Position="-511.79 457.81"/>
<Point Position="-511.36 456.31"/>
<Point Position="-511.15 454.78"/>
</Route>
 
Unfortunately it didn't fix the issue I was trying to rectify.
I have an old install with 46th Scenery in it, it has some of their airbases, this particular one in Nottingham Midlands and it uses one of there airbase facilities airbase_triple_9.
The issue is just a little one, a pet peeve of mine, the cutscene doesn't run, the cutscene file has a entry for all nationality's using airbase_triple_9 using the a,b or g_pregame entries as required and the airbase works fine in the MB or in QC.
When you load in you just get the aircraft showing but no pilot or crates, oil drum etc.
I though maybe the position was too close to a hanger so I moved it (thanks to your info) to a couple of different positions on the airbase but still no cutscene runs nor pilot shows up, so now im lost. I have also tried all the different cutscenes available but still the same, just the aircraft shows up
