CFS2 Aircraft

Although I install aircraft into CFS2 they appear in the file OK but, apart from one or two exceptions do not appear when selected for Free Flight etc. The few aircraft that do appear are Alpha Sim. All the rest do not show. I am using Windows 7 and the simulator works OK, but I would like a change from the default aircraft. Any help would be welcome. :-?

The most common reason for addon aircraft not appearing in Freeflight is the SOUND folder.

Please refer to Reply 6 in the Common CFS2 Problems & Solutions thread:

Same for jet engine sound, I downloaded a Heinkel 162 and a Me-262 but the Heinkel wouldn't work, so I copied the 262 sound file into it and it now works fine.

you need the file for the LEAR45.

place it in your aircraft folder

oh and here is what else you will have to do for your jet

[quote]I'll kick it off with the issue of 'Exploding Jets', which seems relevant at a time when more and more jet aircraft are being flown in CFS2.

ISSUE: So you're flying your flashy new jet fighter and when you pull a tight turn the plane explodes.
