Vista won't let you, drag the .cfg to your desktop, make the changes, save, and put it back in the folder.

And make sure you replace the 'x' with a number if stated.

Remember to take a backup copy of that CFG before editing it in case of mistakes.

Thanks for solving the problem for me but a new problem showed up the aircraft is not in the game !

Copy your Aircraft.cfg entry & paste it here so we can see it. All we need is the last couple of [fltsim.x] entries including the one you added.

Now you know why I suggested taking a backup copy of that file before editing it. If all else fails you can revert to the backup.

In the above example it would be 2.

raaashy. If you took my advice & saved a backup copy of the original Aircraft.cfg file simply paste it back into your 747 folder & start again. If you didn't you will have to find it on the FSX DVD.

My bad it should 2 instead of 3 thanks for checking that hagar. If you deleted the orginal config yo have to put in the FSX CD and click the repair option

i will try to repair it by putting my backup back and will answer you
