When I go to Free Flight to choose an aircraft, it does not show the MD83. It does show a folder for one in the FSX program, with all files present for it. How do I get it to show up in my "Change Aircraft" list? |

You can't, the MD 83 is an AI (computer controlled) aircraft not designed for use. |

You can't. It is AI only. AI aircraft can be seen flying around, though.. |

Of course you can. There are several ways you can do it. The easiest way is to copy and paste both, the panel and the sound folder from the default 737-800 into the MD-83 folder. No overwriting necessary - but FSX might have to be restarted for the changes to take affect.
The aircraft will show up under McDonnell Douglas. |

if you replace the Panel folder with the default Panel folder from the 727 it works pretty well. |

Where is the default 727 in FSX? |

not 727, my mistake - 737. There is actually a panel on freeware floating around that replaces the 727 panel for a MD-83 panel. Looks a little different, but works pretty well. |
