  I unlocked it today. After many retries and figuring out things I got it.
  I tested how the AI pilot would go taxi. So I knew how I had to go when I go do it by myself.
  Also with Arrival, I just put a test, quick fly, just putting arrival and as soon as I landed I let my AI pilot do the taxi and to see how he would taxi at Rotterdam airport, so I would know how to.
  Now for the test and my previous tries, I set Arrival to Gate A1 at Rotterdam Airport, but I noticed the AI pilot would not go there, instead it went to ramp 13. I flew it before and did not get the achievement wen I set the arrival to Gate A1., I guess it is just not possible for airplanes to make that turn to parking A1, or somehow it gets F upped. I guess you need nice and smooth taxi ways. Don't pick a parking next to the runway like I did on this airport, cause that probably caused the problem. So that is why I picked after testing Parking number 13 on Rotterdam.
  
  So then I thought, lets put it on Arrival Ramp 13. And yes, it worked.
  
  
  I recorded how I did it, so you can see yourself.
  
  This guide is assuming you know the jet, the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and know how to use auto pilot.

  (Before I started I made sure everything was set right. Cause if you set it and then change from VFR (Direct-GPS) to IFR (Low-altitude airways) it may change the arrival just to the runway. Also with the Approach, it is set to Automatic and if you change it to RNAV 24, it also might change back to arrival runway 24., so after you have done this, just make sure on the map you see you start from the parking and you end at the parking, just double check everything is set right.)
  
  Also don't forget to put your fuel on 100% before you start, I had some tries when I forgot that and had to go back to the main menu.
  
  And of course your setting needs to be on True To Life.. you can see in the video I check it if it is still on.
  
  And last, always check ATC, respond to ATC when needed.

  pick an airport with only one runway and few parking spots, set assistance to "true to life". Using AP is fine you just have to start the aircraft by yourself and do the taxi which can be confusing on a large airport
  
  I did GCTS(Tenerife) to LPMA(Madeira) with a Cessna Citation CJ4(default) , IFR low-altitude and picked a parking spot both for departure and arrival(ramp 38 to gate A18)
  
  not sure how important this is but I've heard that you should not close any menu after you start the flight, like ATC or Checklist
  
  you will get the achievement when you arrive at the parking spot if you do it right
  
  i had to do about 5 flights with different aircraft and different locations until I got it, I think picking a smaller airport helped
  
  Good Luck

  Try Updating to Sim Update 8 Beta If You are having trouble unlocking this achievement. I have updated to SU8 Beta and this unlocked for me when i loaded up the game. I did this flight right a few times and it never popped, so it is good to know it does track your flights.
