I can not find the aircraft.cfg file

Featured Replies

Hi, I am new to FSX and also to PMDG MD11 for FSX and I can not find the aircraft.cfg file in any folder within FSX at the main directory. I can not find either any aircraft folder within FSX folder at the main directory as well. This was weird to me because I expected to see one like in FS9.Any help would be really appreciated!!!ThanksFrancisco C.

Hi Francisco, Yeah, FSX is slightly different in its directory. They are in the \\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG_MD11\ directory.Also, please sign your posts with full name per forum rules, thanks.

Unless PMDG files are differnet than everything else there is no folder named "directory".The aircraft.cfg file should be in the folder named PMDG_MD11It can be opened and edited using Notepad.

Sorry Zurul, Yeah, the term "directory" is just another way of saying folder or location. I often forget that the FS community is so much more worldly and should have just said, folder, to keep it more simple and basic :(
