What lines in the CFG/AIR files controle if the aircraft is seen in the aircraft menu?

I tried to copy a new CFG/AIR file to an aircraft, but the aircraft was not seen in the aircraft menu..

The new AIR file would need to be renamed with the exact file prefix of the original OR edit the Aircraft.cfg sim= entry to point it to the new one.

For example;
sim=Boeing747-400
will use an AIR file named Boeing747-400.air

PS. If the AIR file is from an unflyable AI Only drone change the Aircraft Type in the AIR file from 2 to 0 to make it display on the FS9 selection menu.

EDIT. Oops. I made a silly mistake. Corrected. :-[
