If you're using WindowsXP, then check the Memory Usage Setting under the XP System Properties. I had it set to System cache (sounds logical regarding scenery cache), but this setting caused aircraft textures to disappear. Aspecially noticable with highly detailed (non-FS) planes. I changed the setting to Programs and textures don't get lost anymore. Depending on the aircraft's location it can take a second to reload the textures. But they ARE always there :-)See below shot (only 45k ;-))http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/32785.jpg
