Use the read-me that came with the aircraft and follow this.

The only change in this is that the aircraft folder is now in the folder marked simobjects.

I'm not much with computers either, but the instructions are pretty clear. I down loaded two and had to go back to the instructions to complete other steps, but they both work great..

Yes, with the new exception of the simobjects folder into the mix.

Anytime I have to edit the config file, the aircraft paints are blurry. Am I doing something wrong or is this a settings issue?

The settings in your video card control panel.
Set the AA, AF and Mip-Map in there.

I have followed your instruction but my Cessna 206, downloaded from this site, does not show in the selection screen. I have Windows Vista and FSX. Help, please, thanks

Adding aircraft into all Flight Simulators is very easy. The same basic method has applied since the dawn of ... FS .. and FSX is not different.

1. Download aircraft from the Net
2. Unzip the file into a Temp folder on your PC
3. Move the Correct folder into the correct location in the FSX Directory
