What do you wish to resize? If it's aircraft check out my tute here. http://www.simviation.com/lair/AI%20drones.htm

PS. Sorry. I posted my reply before you updated the question. ::)
Standard size is Size 7. AI drones can be either Size 8 or 9. It's a matter of preference. I prefer Size 8.

Do you mean that all stock aircraft are size 7? ??? I'm sorry, I wasn't specific. I ment the size of the stock aircraft.

The scale issue is with 3rd party aircraft in AI & online. This is a bug in CFS1 only. I don't think it's possible (or necessary) to resize the visual model of the stock aircraft.

The idea is to scale 3rd party aircraft to match the defaults. They will all be to the same scale. Unfortunately to be accurate this falls in between Size 8 (x2 Scale) & Size 9 (x3 Scale) which is not possible. It's a matter of preference which one you choose. I did try to explain this in my tute.

PS. I've been involved with various successful campaigns for CFS1. I always resized the AI drones for these campaigns to Size 8. We had no complaints on this issue. The Player aircraft do not need to be resized for use in missions. This might be different if you intend using them in Multiplayer.
