The Correct Aircraft is not Being Displayed in the Multiplayer

Hi all,I don't know if any of you have experience this in the multiplayer in FS2004. My brother and I would sometimes fly on the multiplayer and we fly different aircrafts most of the time. Let's say I'm flying the PMDG Continental Airlines 737NG and my brother is flying an Eastern Airlines DC-9. I usually host the player and we're on a wireless network. When we get connected, my brother's plane is not being displayed as a DC-9 but is displayed as the PMDG Continental Airlines 737NG, the same aircraft I'm flying, but he's not flying the PMDG 737NG. He's flying the Eastern Airlines DC-9. Does anyone know why the the correct aircraft is not being displayed? The same also applies on the other computer. Most of the time, the correct aircraft is not being displayed on his computer. I guess there must be something I have to do within the wireless network to make the planes show up what they really are or what we're actually flying.Ken.

Make sure that both of you have the same aircraft in your aircraft folder that the other is flying, so that the PC knows what model to display.
