The default FSX scenery for FAYP is a barren background and no parking. Just a runway.

Here are a couple of scenery Downloads for FYAP I found on Avsim. FSX versions but appear to work fine in P3DV4.
The runway is in a slightly different location between these two files.

I am going to use the larger, more detailed version, Parking 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Small File Size 1.2 MB - 2 parking spaces - OK in FSX and P3DV4

Larger file size 6.1 MB - PhotoReal, 8 parking places - OK in FSX and P3DV4
