AIR files

Recommended Posts

What are people using to open AIR files?   I had an adobe program and it seemed to have disappeared.

 

I have been trying to get it back but can not get it from  Adobe.

 

I use to modify the air file if I want to fly a ai plane.

 

Can anyone help me out?

Adobe programs use the .air suffix for some of their files, but they don't work with FS2004 .air files. The program you need is AirEd from the library here:

Gi'day,

 

Look for "godaired.zip", an " uncorrupted version" of William Roth's original tool; complied by Bob Chicilo .

I thought that v1.52, linked to by Tim above, is the latest version and I have been using it for ages with no issues.

I would be interested to know the difference between that and the file you are referring to.

Gi'day John,

 

Just quoting from Bob Chicilo's Readme:

 

" This is a good copy of AirEd by William M. Roth.  I have noticed that other versions of this utility are missing things.  Like in primary aerodynamics under lift, there should be 8 records, not 6  ... This upload is done because I think there are people out there who are trying to make money from the simulator community who have used their knowledge to make it harder for the average person to produce an aircraft that flys well.  They do this in part by corrupting the original work of the AirEd author.

 

Been using this (1.52) version since its 2009 (FSX) release and have experienced no problems either.

 

YMMV, of course.

 

Regards,
Dorian

Thanks all for the replays.  Tim the file you sent to me was the one that I have been using for all the years and somehow it disappeared from my computer.

 

I got it setup and now I can open the air files again.   Thanks
