Aircraft Starts Powered Up

After all this time FSX has been out, I am still amazed at the new things that go wrong. I now have 2 new mysteries.1. why do I have AI aircraft listings in my main FSX MENU BAR after the last Menu option? Sometimes they are not there.2. Using the default 747, why at certain airports, after being saved in a "powered down condition, starts powered up (master battery/Avionics "On") and cannot be powered down.WilbertASUS P5Q SE PLUS/Thermaltake W0106 700W PSUIntel QX6700 Quadcore - 2.66 OC TO 3.2Vista Ultimate 64 SP2/CORSAIR XMS2 DHX 4GB (2 x 2GB)2x150GB SATA WD Raptor- No Raid/2x320GB SATA WD SE16- No Raid2x IDE Light-On DVDRW 165H65/BFG GTX2603x SILENX 120X25MM FANS + 2x 10in XCLIO Wind Tunnel Case FansDanger Den Water Cooling/Enermax temp/fan controllerFSX ACC@ 1600/1200 |UTX/ASX/FEX/MTX/ASA/REX/UT2/USA Extreme Landscape/World Extreme Landscape

For the first question, if you're using a third party's (usually freeware) AI traffic like World of AI, or maybe your Virtual Airline provides you with one, if the AI plane has a panel folder, sometimes FSX will pick that up as a usable plane. Try deleting the panel folder from the offending aircraft.For the second, not sure, but I think I read somewhere that that's a bug in FSX.

Thanks for that info but I am using what I have listed - UT2 & MTX AI aircraft and I have discovered that the A/c's that are showing up (at lease the ones that have room to be listed) are MTX AI.WilbertASUS P5Q SE PLUS/Thermaltake W0106 700W PSUIntel QX6700 Quadcore - 2.66 OC TO 3.2Vista Ultimate 64 SP2/CORSAIR XMS2 DHX 4GB (2 x 2GB)2x150GB SATA WD Raptor- No Raid/2x320GB SATA WD SE16- No Raid2x IDE Light-On DVDRW 165H65/BFG GTX2603x SILENX 120X25MM FANS + 2x 10in XCLIO Wind Tunnel Case FansDanger Den Water Cooling/Enermax temp/fan controllerFSX ACC@ 1600/1200 |UTX/ASX/FEX/MTX/ASA/REX/UT2/FsPassengers/DBS W & F/PMDG 747/3D shockwave/USA & World Extreme Landscape
