No, there isn't but, if you use GSX to select a parking, it should be fairly simple to see the different areas, since they are grouped with real world names, like "FedEx Hub" or Terminal A, B, C, etc.

Is there any chance you could create a chart for the Fedex parking positions?

Not even LIDO includes them (I guess FedEx uses Jeppessen then, huh?  )

When selecting a flight from the sims menu we can unfortunatly not access the GSX selections and always having to reposition is somewhat annoying.

Create a flight starting to the active runway (which saves you from the time to scroll the parking list, which is *very* large), and then use the GSX menu with the "Just Warp Me there" option, which is way faster, and gives you access to the better GSX list.

There are three types of Parking at the FedEx Ramp  (excluding feeder) -

Type A - B757 and smaller
Type B - MD11 and smaller
Type C - B777 and smaller

I have not verified if they are all correct in the Sim, but so far things have been pretty accurate.

Generally the Type C are going to be the 300 series near Hanger 26 and also 459-462. 

Type A are scattered about, but you generally head to a 100 gate and you will be fine.  Go to 820-847 along Taxiline 800 and you will hit a Type B.

Each ramp area also has a name such as Graceland Ramp, Courtyard, Northeast, Germantown, etc.  I will try to put together a map at some point if that would be helpful.
