Lorsqu'un poste de stationnement est utilisé par différents types d'avions et que l'orientation des avions ne présente pas une grande importance, il peut être possible d'utiliser un ensemble de marques convenant à tous les types d'avions. [...] Cependant, lorsqu'il est indispensable d'orienter l'avion avec précision sur le poste de stationnement, il peut être nécessaire de prévoir des lignes de guidage secondaires. Ces lignes secondaires sont également nécessaires lorsqu'un poste de stationnement pour avions gros porteurs doit pouvoir recevoir plusieurs avions de faible tonnage en même temps [...] De tels postes de stationnement sont désignés communément sous le nom de postes superposés. 1, record 1, French, - postes%20superpos%C3%A9s
