Hi. Thanks. The aircraft shows up in the aircraft select menu with the default thumbnail since there is no thumbnail.jpg in any of the texture folders. The error states that the model can not be shown. The plane loads with no model. Yes there are valid sound and panel folders. In fact there is sound and a panel, which is the correct one, but no model. I tried copying the A version model into the B version for both the ramp and no ramp model. It now shows only the ro ramp model. Another thing that is strange is that there is a valid thumbnaail.jpg in the A version texture folder but it does not show that thumbnail in the aircraft select menu, only the default thumbnail. This is the only Alpha freeware plane that I have this problem. I have all of the others installed OK in FSX. Regards, Bob.Double check that the B has a properly installed or aliased panel and sound set.
FSX won't show aircraft if it can't find a sound or panel folder.
