What's with the under belly pod and camera?

Featured Replies

Every time I try to fly the American Eagle livery and try to connect the external power unit, instead I get this black under beely pod and a spy camera. What's with that, how did this come about? None of my other liveries does this, and I downloaded this livery from the PMDG website.RADARSCAN.jpg

The US government contracted AMR to use their aircraft as secret spy planes. Just kidding.I've never seen that before. Perhaps it's something to do with the American Eagle entry in the .cfg file and some other software maybe?

I'm not sure, but all I know is that the livery was intalled automatically when I download it from the PMDG website, and no other livery has this problem. I checked the aircraft.cfg, and I can't see an entry that is different from the rest.

Well, I found the texture, which is called "PMDG_J41_HKGFS" and "PMDG_J41_HKGFS_Spec". They are in the main PMDG JS4100 Texture folder. But how come it's only affecting my American Airline and not the other liveries is what's puzzling me.
