The Missing Pilot

Is there any simple way to add a pilot to an airplane that didn't come with one in FSX? Like maybe copy the necessary files from an airplane that does have a pilot.  :-?

It's part of the model, so no, not unless you get your hands on the original gmax source file ;)

Yea, I kind of figured the answer would be something like that. Never hurts to ask though. Why anyone would not add a pilot when they design a airplane is beyond me.

i remember there were some planes which required you to press a button on the keyboare to fill the pilot's seat.....

It's still basically an animation built into the model ;)

In CFS2 it's possible to add a pilot as an external payload in the DP. I often wondered why they didn't incorporate that idea into FS. http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/cfs2/spitpak.htm
