Installing an Add-On Aircraft

[kevchris]

Hello All - Since I just purchased a Jetline computer, I am finally able to try out FSX which I have had for years, but could never run satisfactorily.

Question: I am attempting to install a downloaded 737. The instructions tell me to place it in the "Airplanes" folder (It was "Aircraft" in FS9) but no such folder seems to exist. Can anyone tell me where the aircraft folder is, or where we place new aircraft in FSX.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am new to FSX.

Thanks,

Kevin

Look in the Simobjects folder.

If you have Windows XP, it's located here.
Microsoft Flight Simulator X/Simobjects/Airplanes

Be aware that using FS9 aircraft in FSX may cause inconsistencies in the visual and flight model.
