Thanks for everyone's help! I'll mess around and see what I can solve here. I've managed to get the aircraft changed so I'm pretty happy about that! I just love the airliners.

I am having no luck in figuring out Flightgear though, it seems quirky. I try to go full screen and it crashes my desktop (PCLinuxOS). I can't even figure out how to change aircraft from the default one. I have had the fullscreen crash myself. The way I found to get around it was to start in fullscreen. For this you need to start FG from a terminal.This will also allow you to change aircraft. Its awhile since I ran from a terminal but I think the commands are something like this FGFS aircraft=(the A/C you want) geometry=fullscreen > > Am I just missing something here? > > Thanks, > > Keith Hope this helps Cheers Innis _________________________________________________________________ Overpaid or Underpaid?
