It is possible that you trashed your XML file - for instance, your element tags don't match or something. It is good policy to validate your XML files after making an edit or using them the first time - and this is a good policy not just for JSBSim files, but for any XML file. A schema has been created for JSBSim aircraft config files that specifies what is "legal". You can use a tool such as oXygen or Stylus Studio to validate the document. There are other tools as well. Another thing you can do is to open the aircraft config file in a browser. That *should* display the XML file using the style sheet specified in the processing instruction at the top of JSBSim aircraft config files. There is a style sheet (JSBSim.xsl) at the JSBSim web site. If the xml file loads properly, chances are it is well-formed, at least. You should peruse the data presented to make sure it is what you expect to see.
