Region of aircraft movement and parking
A ramp controller is responsible for the loading/unloading sequence of passenger and cargo aircraft on the tarmac (ramp). I was a ramp controller when I was in the Air Force and worked as an Air Freight/Air Transportation Supervisor.
Smaller aircraft will park on a "tie-down" which usually has a set of three ropes for literally tying the aircraft down. Larger aircraft park at a "gate." The large paved area around the gates and tiedowns is called a "ramp" or "apron". Buildings in which aircraft are parked are called "hangars." Helicopters takeoff, land and park on "helipads." It is common practice for small and mid-sized airplanes to disembark their passengers on the apron and then be towed or taxi or to a tie-down or hangar.

Unfortunately you can't with the standard version of Flight Simulator 10. You can only call a fuel truck and on push back at the correct gate or ramp you can get a tug. Note also some of the many fantastic aircraft models when these are parked on a jetway the jetway will not function. This is because there is a small code set up in the process that recognises the aircraft from the default package.
Airplanes park on the ground. They are commonly parked in hangars, on a paved parking area at the airport called a ramp, or sometimes just tied down in the grass.
