Founder Nels_Anderson Posted February 2, 2019 Founder Share Posted February 2, 2019 We have a file library right here at FlightSim.Com. I just did a quick search there and immediately came up with this: FS2004 (ACOF) - FS2004 General Aviation FS2004 Piper PA28-140 [ Download | View ] Name: pa2814oe.zip Size: 9,927,663 Date: 06-09-2005 Downloads: 32,150 FS2004 Piper PA28-140.

Skyflyer4 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 Thanks Nels, I am new to this, I did get the file BUT it does not show in aircraft list, I unzipped it then copied it to the FS9 aircraft folder. Like I said I am newand guess I am not loading it right. Any help would be deeply appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Nels_Anderson Posted February 3, 2019 Founder Share Posted February 3, 2019 OK then, start with the basics. On the menu on the home page (not in the forums), under "Home" you'll see links to landing pages for various sims, including FS2004. Go to that landing page: https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/content.php?13634-FS2004 In the left column menu is a collection of useful information, including install guides for various types of add-ons. That's a good place to start to learn the basic skills. Of course, you also need to read the docs inside each individual file for specific instructions.

Skyflyer4 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 Nels, Good Afternoon, OK I did a lot of reading and I tried to install pa2414 and did not show up in aircraft list How ever there is a piper Comanche file that I loaded it the same as the pa2414 and it load successfully and shows up in the list and it is working. I guess there is some difference in the file that causes not to work. I read where somebody else was saying things were missing in the pa2414 file. hope i am not being a pain .

There so many zipfiles. would they all be extracted to panel? or cfg Thanks again, you guys were great help Pilot I saw that download...what a mess! I would extract each of those .zip files to your desktop and place stuff where it belongs. It might just be easier to use the Bendix radio stack from a default aircraft and have it be a pop up.

Skyflyer4 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Well guess I goofed, I tried to do what you said but I messed up , I was guessing as to what folder to put the the radio file in. I assumed it would be the panel folder.. WRONG! the program crashes when it loads the files ,crashes at 59% . I removed the pa2414 from the aircraft folder but whatever I did affected the whole fs9 . I ran the test of the problem and it came up with MFC70.DLL was the problem. ant ideas how I can fix or just reload the complete FS9. Guess I need more help as to where those radio files go.
