At Bristol we dont use or operate the DGS (Docking Guidance Systems) to park aircraft on stands. We use marshallers to park aircraft onto stands, with the aid of marshalling aircraft are guided onto stand better than jst using the pilot's jugdement. Marshalling is used if there's an obstruction on stand or around, during nose into wind, stop short and self manoeure at airports that use DGS. Those depending on the stands aircraft can park them selfs without the need for a marshallers, but at BRS marshallers are used at some pilots are not confidence parking aircraft on stands.
