You delete them in the content manager.

Careful deleting default aircraft. In future updates MSFS might complain that it can not install an update because aircraft xyz is missing..... Happened to me.....

Most of what is said on the Internet may be the same thing they shovel on the regular basis at the local barn.

Official/OneStore/asobo-aircraft-c152 all the way down to asobo-aircraft-tbm930 and maybe further if youve got more added.

 

Open simObjects/Airplanes folder then the folder name of the airplane ie asobo-Generic-(name of aircraft)

 

 

Then open aircraft.cfg with notepad

 

change 

 

 

isAirTraffic = 1 ; airtraffic flag for variations 

 

to 

 

isAirTraffic = 0 ; airtraffic flag for variations

 

 

Remove everything else in content manager before doing this then reboot and run sim and exit to save any new info from content removal.  There is a possibility of update failure from then on so backup your Main folder with community and official sub folders that reside in it offline somewhere.
