Generally addon scenery files go into the "Addon Scenery" folder and depending upon the type
(scenery or mesh ) will be placed in the folder that you can name, "South_America", "or Carribbean"
for example. Inside that folder you must have a sub-folder named "scenery", and if the addon comes
with textures, then you also need a sub-folder named "texture".

If yourdownload contains only a "bgl" file, it may be a terrain mesh file and you do not
need a "texture" subfolder.

Some people also just place those "bgl" files into the existing "Addon Scenery\scenery" folder.
If you place your bgl(s) in this folder you won't need to "activate" the scenery. However, if you
use a named folder with subfolders, you will need to go to the FSX menu "settings" and "scenery"
and add the new scenery by pointing FSX to the named folder.
