Actually this might not be so bad, as I think your grep may have returned some false positives. The A380, 747-400 and 737NG800 only add an aircraft specific menu and add "Pushback" to the Equipment menu, they don't disable any existing menu items. However giving menu items an alias name or

The f-14b used to disable the fuel menu item, because it uses a special one. It used to be the first menu item on the Equipment menu, maybe that's why the map got disabled instead. > Oh, this actually shows a larger problem.

Oh, this actually shows a larger problem. Obviously it isn't too uncommon for aircraft to disable or override specific menu items - mainly affects menu items for the radio stack and autopilot. Unfortunately all of this is done using fixed menu item positions - e.g. 5th menu, 3rd item... So any chan

The F14 disables the first menu item from the 5th menu ext_stores.nas => setprop("sim/menubar/default/menu[5]/item[0]/enabled", 0); Not sure which menu item originally was at this location. Quite bad. Harded coded hacks like this just always break... ;) cheers, Thorsten On Thu, Dec 30, 2010

Here's a dumb question: I see the built in flightgear map dialog is activated in the 777-200ER, but disabled (grayed out) for the F-14b. I can't find the mechanism or place where this is set. How can i control the availability of the map dialog? Thanks, Curt. -- Curtis Olson: http://www.atiak
