Where is the "Hours Meter" data stored?

Postby Drizzle » Thu Apr 14, 2011 11:08 am

I've spent hours searching for this info, but haven't succeeded in finding an answer...

Does anyone know where FSX stores the accumulated hours log for each aircraft? I've just finished building a new computer for flying, and as I'm transferring my 'hangar' to the new computer, I'd really like to keep the 'time' I've accumulated on the RPM gauge's hours counter. But I can't find it. I've searched the config file and several other folders, but....

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi Drizzle. Look in the same folder your fsx.cfg is located. There should be a folder named SimObjects in there containing folders with the same names as all your installed aircraft. The information you want is recorded in a file named state.CFG in the relevant aircraft folders.
