Great gents, I'll add you all to the list of registered pilots and aircraft tail numbers will be allocated shortly before the Event ;)

@ Bruce - have you followed the instructions in the DC-3 installer? Assuming you're using the default DC-3 rather than the MAAM-SIM one, you have to take these steps:

"- - - I M P O R T A N T - - -
This package contains only texture. You must have the default aircraft installed in its original folder (...FS2004\aircraft\Douglas_DC3) for proper useage. After the installation you need to add the EuroHarmony texture to the Aircraft.cfg file, so you should add the following lines to it:

[fltsim.4]
title=Douglas DC-3 EHM
sim=Douglas_DC3
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=ehm
kb_checklists=Douglas_DC3_check
kb_reference=Douglas_DC3_ref
atc_id=PH-EBD
ui_manufacturer=EuroHarmony
ui_type=Museum
ui_variation=Douglas DC-3
description="The Douglas DC-3 revolutionized air transportation and airline service during the 1930s and 1940s. It was a luxury airliner that boasted cabin heat and running water in its on-board lavatory. With the right balance of efficiency, range, speed, and payload, the DC-3 was the first aircraft to earn a profit for its owners just by carrying passengers. The hero of early airlines, a handful of DC-3s are still at work today."

If, for any reason you already have a [flightsim.4] section in the file -maybe you installed already some more DC3 textures- then change "4" to the highest one in the file +1. This is necessary to show up the plane in the game."

If this doesn't fix it, let us know and indicate exactly how you installed it, where your FS folder is and any adaptations you already have to your default DC-3 please ;)

And if the texture set for the FS2004 default is anything like the MAAM set, you'll need to copy the content of the default texture to the EHM texture folder (but DO NOT over write the existing files).
