I really regret not taking a screenshot:I was flying the J41 in SA Airlink colours (night flight) and at some point during the flight (about an hour in) I went to external view for the first time and noticed something I have never seen before - the aircraft had what appeared to be a pod under the belly immediately forward of the wings. Also, behind the nose gear, was what looks like a photography pod - a small, short tube extending down. These were not graphical glitches - they had texture and rivets/screws, perfectly moulded to the aircraft contours. I thought perhaps I had selected something by mistake in the J41 config manager but on checking that after I closed the flight, there is no such option. After that, I reloaded the aircraft and it was gone.What was this? I only have the two standard installed liveries (PMDG and green unpainted, along with the SA Airlink livery from the PMDG site).

It's the Hong Kong GFS model somehow being chosen by the sim. Check the aircraft.cfg to make sure the SAA livery doesn't have the model associated with it in there.Here's an actual picture of it:http://www.flickr.com/photos/darylchapman/2697998653/

That pod is actually a piece of geometry on the model that hides or shows based on the livery entry in the aircraft.cfg requesting it. Somehow FSX must have shown it when it wasn't supposed to - sounds like some weird bug in the sim most likely, nothing we can do about it.
