I would agree, and that was my original plan, but my knowledge of the FG code base is limited to the time it took me to figure out how to accomplish this, and that seemed considerably more work. I gained a side benefit doing it this way, that perhaps I'm one of the few people who was doing such a thing in the first place. But now instead of moving all the Aircraft I didnt want to see out of the Aircraft/ dir, I can also do the opposite and populate this 'garbage' (dnl/Aircraft/) dir with the Aircraft I do want to see. This to me is great for events when I know what people will be flying in. And it was simply the easiest way to get FG to load the glider, and still show the pilots actual aircraft in the Pilot List. --Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Windows Azure Live!
