The process is almost the same as in FS9.
Have a look here

Keep on mind that there is no Aircraft folder in FSX.Crafts are located under the SimObjects/Airplanes.
Also there must be a Readme.file into your download.Read careful before you start anything.
Notice:Always back-up you original files when you need to replace them. |

This is what I did when my FSX was working:
>>Start
>>My Computer
>>Hard Drive
>>Program Files
>>Microsoft Games
>>Microsoft Flight Simulator X
>>Aircraft
Then I copy and pasted the folder I downloaded in there, or you can make a new folder and called it 744AC, which I done if I was installing a 747-400 Air Canada plane, then copy and paste the components from the folder I downloaded into the folder I just created. It all worked for me fine. |

This just shows how satisfactory results can be achieved by using a bit of well meant prodding and provoking of thought.
The weirdest thing is it seemed to work without having been nice
Maybe there is something to that rumour that's been making the rounds which claims that: Useful information is sometimes of more value than meaningless niceties and platitudes. Hmm... |
