HelloHas anyone seen this happen before? When I add a plane(like a Posky), and then start up fs9, it does not show up on the aircraft list. I am not a newbie, and have added or deleted hundreds of planes, without seeing this before. Did some module or file become corrupted? Any ideas? I have even tried rebooting to see if that would make it take, it doesn't. I have an AMD 2800+ processor, 1 gig of ram, a 256mg GeForce 6200 video card, the Ultimate Terrains, Ultimate Traffic, Flight Enviroment, Ground Enviroment, certain PAI packages, and a number of add-ons. All have been on for some time, without a problem. I am mystified about this! I would be grateful for any suggestions you may have. Do I have to re-install FS9? Thank you in advance for any help.SpiritFlyer

Check the following:a) are you looking under the right "manufacturer"? Some developers like to put their plane e.g. under "Project Opensky" instead of the more obvious "Boeing".:( if you downloaded a repaint rather than an original POSKY file, check that the aircraft.cfg references the right .air file and model folder. http://www.commerciallevel.com/base/suppor...46supporter.jpg

Yes, I have checked that as well. I do not have any textures without the models etc. Like I said, I think it must be something gone amiss in my MS9 itself - perhaps something like when you load a PAI plane their auto installer asks you if you want the plane to be visable on the list or not. It does not matter what I put in manually, they are not showing up after restart. I have examined the aircraft files and can find nothing out of place. Something in MS9 must have corrupted. I am at a loss of what to do about it.Here is a copy of my FS9 file.

Here's your problem, change the "0" to a "1":DISPLAY_NEW_AIRCRAFT=0OK, just kidding :) .What the PAI installer does to make your aircraft display or not has to do with a setting in your .air file. You can use a prog called "AirEd" (Google it) to open your .air file and check. It's under "Aircraft type" and if it's a "2" the aircraft won't show up in the aircraft selection list. Change it to "Aircraft type 0" and it'll show up.That said, I highly doubt that this would be the problem with a Posky aircraft as they are not intended for AI use. Generally Posky aircraft show up in the list under "Manufacturer: Project Opensky" as Misha K said, rather than "Boeing" or "Airbus" or whatever. You can double check this in the aircraft.cfg, it has to do with these 3 lines:ui_manufacturer=Project Openskyui_type=767-300ui_variation=Delta AirlinesPost your aircraft.cfg if you're still having trouble.Jim

HiIf you have added an entry for a repaint into the aircraft.cfg file and do not give the new repaint a unique name it will not show up. eg.

Hello Again,I looked in the air files of the variouos aircraft I have uploaded, and they have the proper number in aircraft type. I reloaded FS9 and the various add-ons (7 hours work!) and it is still the same - It will not show any plane I upload.What is the world can be going on?? I am stumped!SpiritFlyer

Upload the contents of one of your aircraft files, so we can see your numbering

Hi Is it one aircraft type or all new aircraft types that don`t show up?Also, please post your aircraft.cfg for one of the affected aircraft..I`m pretty sure this is where the problem lies.CheersJames
