"flight File Is Corrupt Or Can't Be Found..." Error. Why?

Hi,

I keep getting this error message when I load a saved .flt file, either from a shortcut or from the flt file directly. Why - any ideas anyone? I have been doing this for many years and am pretty familiar with the format when I open the flt file in a text editor. It all looks OK to me!

Moreover, when Ioad the same flight from within 'Select a flight' (clicking oon fs9.exe rather than the flt file to start the programme) it loads up just fine. So why don't some flights load directly from the flt file? If the file were 'corrupt' I should surely get the same problem when I try to load it via the fs9 'select a flight' screen? Just an Fs9 glitch??

Thanks - flt file is below.

Martin
