I am trying to run flightgear 0.9.10 on my Win2000,sp2 machine (using windows installer).After startup in the Wizard i get to choose the airplane (works fine), but choosing the location does not work.After some thinking it returns a blank list, although there are airports installed:FlightGear/data/airports/Al/EHAM and .../KSFOHow can i solve this? Or should i use a command line startup somehow?

>WHICH airplane?A full list of planes, some of which I tried, all with the same result in the following window (location)>Choosing WHICH location?Not able to choose any location, also with Default, the list remains blank.>have you actually>rebuilt (deleted) the (original) airport cache (using the>first page in fgrun)?I have tried, but I am unable to use the [Delete] button, or change the path manually. The other settings (executable) and (root dir) do check out. I noticed something strange in the path: the filname is preceded by a double slash (...//airports.txt), but I am unable to change that.>If so, have you installed additional scenery tiles?none>Also, are there any console messages (warnings/errors) in the>shell window?Only when trying to complete the wizard without selecting an airport it says something like 'unable to load the settings' and it exits. That sounds logical.>http://www.seedwiki.com/wiki/flight_gear/h...you?wpid=247004I'll try that now
