Have you moved the content of the folder/zip file "gauges" inside either the "gauges" folder in the main FS9 folder or alternatively the very same plane's panel folder?
There's but one real cure for human stupidity. It's called DEATH.

F14 Tomcat folder in Airplens folder with sub +folders Model, Panel, Sound,Texture, Texture.32 Texture.102, Texture.103 I copied the Effects, open the effect folder which came with the plane, select all and copy and past it in the Effect-folder, also the Gauges in the same way. I have on gauge folder, It show no .gau files only 2 .xml and 4 .bmp the are for the after-burner and I do not know where to put those files. I did fly the plane without missing instruments. Herb

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

I think I know the problem. In the Forum: Fly-away, a lot have Gauge problem with this plane. The Autor point in the Panel Confg. folder to Gauges of different planes. Airplanes I do not have. That is all for now. BTW, airplane is a freebe, no lost for me. Herb
