Assigning aircraft registration

[tevita]

Have done this once to change default aircraft registration (call sign reference), now it has reverted to default. Where do I find this setting? Dave

Click on Aircraft image you have chosen, go to ATC Options and under Registration number in top field

or if you want to make it so that the callsign stays on that aircraft by default...

 

while not using the sim, open windows explorer and find your aircraft’s config file which will be somewhere like this for example...

d:/msfs/official/OneStore/asobo-aircraft-c152/SimObjects/Airplanes/Asobo_C152

 

open “aircraft.cfg” with notepad... and find the line which says...

atc _id = “ASXGS” ; tail number. (you may want to make a backup copy of the config file first)

 

you can replace ASXGS with the registration of your choice.

Whenever you launch the sim and fly that particular aircraft the reg will still be set to that.

 

I’ve done this to a couple of my planes, but apparently not all of them have the aircraft config file

Thanks for that Steve. As noted previously the sim can be erratic when it comes to remembering your custom callsign and registration when loading a saved game.
