I downloaded the EC-137D and the only avail. repaint for it and tried to install it. I followed the directions to the letter: since it is for FSX, I deleted the aircraft.cfg file and renamed the aircraft_fsx to aircraft.cfg and then installed the aircraft. Then, I installed the texture and inserted this text into the aircraft.cfg file:
[fltsim.0] // Change "xx" to next number in sequence starting from 0
title=Boeing/USAF EC-137 AWACS
sim=ec-137d
model=EC137D
panel=
sound=
texture=usaf_1972_ec137d_71-1407
kb_checklists=
description=Boeing EC-137D 71-1407. This was the first prototype for the E-3 Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) program. The aircraft was later re-designated as E-3A SENTRY and joined the expanding fleet of production models along with her sister ship 71-1408. Subsequently both were converted, along with their production counterparts to E-3B then E-3C specs.
ui_manufacturer=Boeing
ui_type=EC-137D AWACS
ui_variation=70-1407
atc_id=
atc_heavy=1
atc_airline=Air Force
atc_flight_number=1407
atc_parking_codes=
atc_parking_types=CARGO,RAMP
Nothing happened. It will not show in my aircraft list. I checked your "FAQ" section and checked all it says to check and everything appears to be correct in all the .cfg files. I am at a complete loss here as to why this aircraft will not install. I had the same issue with all of the other aircraft that I downloaded here so I am inclined to believe that I am doing something wrong or may perhaps be unaware of something I am not doing.
Please, can you help me shed some light on this issue???
