To stop cheaters online you must have the same aircraft with the same air and dp files as the host or it won't work. Therefore to get it working you need to either download or buy the aircraft your talking about. Try Sim-outhouse and if they're not there then they're probably payware in which case check out Wings of Power.

1% aircraft will work if the host has them. To find out what will work on which server you have to find out exactly what the host has on their computer.

MS shot itself in the foot on multi-player trying to prevent cheating.  

For MP to work everybody has to have exactly the same aircraft or you can't hook up. Exactly means exactly.

Even a newer version of one of our planes will fail the test when its matched to its own older version.

Not a good plan for open code that allows 3rd parties to change things.
