There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

First thing to do go back into your FS9 aircraft folder and open the folder you put in there that contains the aircraft.
If another folder shows up in that folder open it.
Look for the Aircraft.cfg file. if it is in this folder back out one level so you see the folder and not the files it contains.
Rename this folder just add any character to the name and save.
Cut this folder and back out one layer again.
This should put you in the main FS9/aircraft folder.
Paste that folder here.
Delete the other one you just backed out of.
Rename the one back to what it was before if you want to it is not necessary.
Some developers when they pack their folders it ends up having two layers
It would look like this
c:/program files/microsoft games/Flight Simulator 9/Aircraft/P-39/p-39
Well that will not work FS9 will look for the plane in the first P-39 but the files that make up the plane are in the second one.
It should look like this
c:/program files/microsoft games/Flight Simulator 9/Aircraft/P-39
The files in the folder should be aircraft.cfg, {something}.air, sound folder, texture, model folder and maybe some more.
Hope that helps,
