Hey man, chill.

When I need a new aircraft I do the following

1.) Comb the Simviation download section.
2.) Use the awesome search feature at www.flightsim.com
3.)Google the aircraft.

What airline are you looking for? I might be able to help you out!

It's rather easy.

Unzip it, place the entire folder containing the model/panel/sound/texture and whatnot folders, into your ProgramFiles/MicrosoftGames/FSX/SimObjects/Aircraft folder.

If it has an effects, or gauge folder, put them in the corresponding folder in the main  FSX directory folder.

Usually the download comes with a Read-me file. Open that up with notepad and that should tell you how to install.

After a few downloads, you should be able to install it yourself without having to read the instructions, though it's always good to read them just in case you miss anything important (sometimes there's some editing to do on some files.)

Try this...
This is where i mostly get all my boeings...

projectopensky.com
go to the top toolbar, click downloads, scroll down to 747 series and look for 747-200.

Then search for some 747-200 textures here on simv
I found some here for you as a start..
http://www.simviation.com/fs2004jets96.htm

And if you havent yet learned how to download aircraft onto the game I learned from youtube videos..

Here's a link to a good video
