i had the same problem with the B737-800
so insted i used DDS Converter 2 this will convert your DDS image the standard FSX image to what ever image you like. i used paint shop pro so i changed it to .psd did the repainting then converted it back to DDS and it worked hope this helps.

to get DDS converter 2 just search in google yahoo what ever you use as it is freeware.
