Narrative:
Upon arrival; our gate was occupied and tower told us to hold in the lima pad. Using the 10-9; I did my best to find and park as designated on that page. Later; the ground controller queried us on our parking location and we discussed the location versus what is depicted on the 10-9 page. He said others have done the same thing.the stl 10-9 page has an incorrect location for the lima pad. The 10-9D low vis page appears to have the correct location. The 10-9B parking gates page would be a great place to put a more detailed location schematic for the lima pad.
