Aircraft- DataSource .
In the video , the data is stored in C: \ Project \ FSFlyingSchool \ Aircraft.

On my computer, the data is stored in D : \ Program Files \ FSFlyingSchool_Pro_2015 \ Aircraft.

During the installation of " Flying School " everything is install in D: \ Program Files \ FSFlyingSchool_Pro_2015. That is the path .

And there are a lot of planes there.

Flight simulator P3D v2, and all accessories are on my "D" drive and not "C"

How I point out the right path for the planes? I can find no indication in the manual.

thanks Frans Jeijsman

Hi:

It is not necessary to specify where aircraft data is to FSFlyingSchool.

It will automatically look at the 'aircraft' folder beneath its own folder to find profiles (FSR or FSU files) for any plane currently in use in the simulator.

If it finds nothing there (the plane has no profile) then it will automatically estimate the values from the simulator's own data on the plane.



If you experiencing a problem with the function of the program - can you tell us what it is?

I do not understand how it works.
What to see the usefulness of the directory aircraft with 144 aircrafts if none of these aircrafts can't be seen in the aircraft screen.

For example I have a Maule_M7_260C in P3d. In D : \ Program Files \ FSFlyingSchool_Pro_2015 \ Aircraft. is also a
Maule_M7_260C.fsr . The same name.

the aircraft chosen in P3d is the same, yet the aircraft's screen goes blank and gives no pad or information on that plane.
the status "Monitoring P3D . pointed to FSLyingSchool Data and Connect. "
In my opinion the aircraft's screen is useless.

in your guide i read on page 8
" FSFlyingSchool PRO 2014 Cessna 182 Detail Pack Included
If you fly a Cessna 182 you'll get a deep level of attention to the details of the Cessna 182 and the right
way to fly her. Get ready to deal with carburetor heat , propeller control, cowl flaps, manifold pressure
and much more . "

Where are the details of the Maule_M7_260C ? if i load it in 3PD ?

I also have a Cessna 172 " ALABEO C172 " tried . even there I find nothing back , I rename it in
your database " C172.fsr to " Alabeo C172 RG Cuttlass II C GGal , te name in name P3D,

Can you explain to me how it works?
thank you verry mutch

(excuse me for my English)

Hi Frans:

Glad to help!

>> In my opinion the aircraft's screen is useless.

Good news - it performs many essential functions and the details of its operation are fully described in the manual.

Regardless - I will describe the key points here for you...

The aircraft screen provides an interface for the pilot to enter details about any powered airplane he/she has chosen to fly - but this is entirely optional.

If the plane is one of the for which there is a profile in FSFS then the profile data will be used.

If not - then FSFS will automatically estimate the values. The pilot can then end the session with FSFS and adjust the details - but this is entirely optional.

In order for FSFS to match one of its profiles with the plane, the folder name of the plane in the simulator must match the profile's file name exactly.

So, for example, the file C172.fsr will be matched to the airplane in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes\C172

The file Maule_M7_260C.fsr will be used if you are flying a plane which is in a folder called: Maule_M7_260C


Detail packs are a separate feature - there are 12 in the P3Dv2 version of FSFS PRO 2015 - and those planes which have them will receive extra detail from the instructor when flown.

As I mentioned , I have airplanes where the name in P3D is equal to that in the database of FSFS .
which are not recognized and Flightplan screen remains blank.

I have now done the following ;
I removed FSFS ( with Revo Uninstall ) and FSFS reinstalled but now on "C" .
the path that indicates the installation procedure. So now FSFS is at C: \ Program Files (x86) \ FSFlyingSchoolP3D .

And now everything works well .

As I indicated in my first question. FSFS has trouble finding the path if it is not on "C "
the problem is solved
Thanks, Frans Jeijsman

Hi Frans:

It's fantastic to read that it is all working well.

I hope you enjoy your flights!

To all forum members reading this post - please be advised that it is not necessary to tell FSFS where its own files are and there is no problem whatsoever with installing FSFlyingSchool on any hard disc or similar device you have on your PC.
