How do I get my plane back?

[AKLupine]

After spending quite a few hours in the Cessna with my head doing touch and goes to the drone of the engine I finally saved enough cash to purchase
a new-to-me Boeing 732. I downloaded this aircraft sometime last year but never spent a lot of time with it then, but wonder why as I am quite
impressed with the modelling of this plane. Trouble is ATC kept calling me EXPERIMENTAL! While tinkering with the config file in an attempt to at
least be called a "Boeing" I changed something to where now the plane is no longer in my virtual hanger. I would just go and get a new copy of it,
but I cannot recall where I got it from. In other news, anyone who is in the large turboprop market should look into the DASH-7 at flightsim.com.
There is a weather recon version that might look a bit odd for pax but is an excellent performer and is a joy to fly. Be forewarned though, on
longer flights I have found that the engine drone is purrrrrfect for making touch and goes become full stops! Happy flights and thank you in
advance
for any help with the Boeing.

do a system restore to before you fiddled with the config files etc? ???

Proving once again that Murphy is my guardian angel, I remembered where I got the Boeing from right after I hit POST. So while that is taken care of,
anyone know how to get ATC to play ball?

well I had it do that to me with my 727, the voice was there, but the ATC just kept saying Boeing, turns out Mike stone didnt do something right.


Find the line "ui_type=" then put "737-400" so it should look like this. ui_type="737-400" While granted yours is not a 400, the ATC NEVER says 737-400

Thanks a bunch! Now I'll quit slacking here and give it a whirl

Also, try downloading EditVoicePack (I think availible thru http://www.Avsim.com) as it adds tons of callsigns to FS.

I did the -400 change which moved it to the Boeing/734 part of the hanger yet is still called EXPERIMENTAL. I got the plane from
http://asva.nwva.org/asvafleet.htm if anyone is interested in getting a nice solid plane to fly on the cheap, just don't try anything long distance
with it, (Think KSFO-KORD is about IT.) The config file is as follows, hopefully someone will see the problem come jumping out:

[fltsim.0]

Most likely is something simple but as you might gather from my sig, I don't build 'em, I don't fly 'em, I just keep 'em from trading paint When I
am done with the current flight I will give avsim a try and see if that helps, if so I might even give the ol' Concorde another try.....once I import
it from the dusty confines of my FS2K hanger. Happy flights all, and thank you again for all the help!
