      i have been trying to fix this all day long. i have serched the forums for a while and come up with nothing. this is the problem. the other day i tried to load a new T-34 panel. when i started to load up the sim this error came up

        aircraft initialization failure
          executive VC


what is this?

thanks in advance!

 Although I doubt it if this is the problem but you might want to try removing the panel file from the air craft and see if the problem goes away. If it does your problem is somewhere in that folder. If not the problem might be in the aircraft cfg file or the .Air file. Make sure the .Air file name in the aircraft cfg file is the same as the name of the .Air file in the aircraft's folder.
If you have AIRED or some other .air editor try to open the .Air file if you get an error when trying to open the air file then ther is a problem with the file. You might want to download it again.
Other than that I am at a loss I have never had that error before.

i went in the FS2004 file and deleted averything, then i went and renstalled the program, still have the same problem

aircraft initialization failure happens mostly when the "sim=" line in the .cfg differs from the name of the .air file... (check for misspellings)

well, i went in and deleted all of the files. how do i fix the problem now?

..mm....If you could say exactly which panel and where you got it..........it would make life easier for guys wanting to help..............commoner....and which aircraft you put it in if possible!

well i have the corinada T-34, i wanted an IFR panel. so when i tried to upload the panel it messed up the sim. i went into the FS9 folder and deleted the file and all gauges. then i uninstalled and then i reinstlled. still have the error message. what gives?

It would help if you could post links to the pages these files are posted on. I don't see how a new panel could cause a problem if you deleted it.

If the T-34 has a DVC the gauges won't display correctly unless you transfer the entries from the original Panel.cfg.

i guess i should clarify, the sim wont even load up. i got the download from avsim. i erased everything and now i cant even get the sim to run. its driving me nuts!

...time to try the old "cure all" ...delete the fs9.cfg file and then try to start the sim. Back up your old one by renaming it or moving it somewhere safe...just in case..........commoner.

.....BTW...look here for it...and make hidden files available ............C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\Microsoft\FS9

..It's where I said but show hidden files in Folder Options....Open the folder and under Tools/Folder Options/View Tab will be a box to check.......commoner.
