Hi Paul,I thimk the file you're looking for is the FS2002.cfg. It's in the main FS2002 directory.Hope this helps,Greg

Just create a second install of FS, copy your current settings, aircraft, texture and scenery folders to it so you have two versions of your current setup, then tweak away! Details of how to achieve this are in the forum. I have a second `pure` copy of FS2004 I keep for rudimentary benchmarking and comparison purposes and it sure saves a heap of trouble! Allcott
