If more than one ApronElement has a TEMPDELTA associated with the Event, then the application shall identify the connected elements and generate the text in a logical order (e.g. "between Acft stand 1 and Acft stand 10" could be generated from two ApronElements - one from Acft stand 1-5 and one from 5-10)

If more than one apron and/or apron element has a TEMPDELTA associated with the Event, then insert the designator of each additional apron and/or apron element, designator preceded by ",". Insert "and" before the last entry.
