Hey everybody,

since the Admins didn't cancel my Account yet, I would like to ask you about a problem I have recently experienced. I wanted to share my plane so that a friend could join it and I could teach him how and what to use in the cockpit to fly the realistic way. Anyway, he couln't join my Plane because he just couln't click the button where it says "join the aircraft" or so. It was simply gray. When I tried to get into his plane the same thing happened, I couldnt hit the button. I seen many people sharing there planes with others already and I couldnt get into theirs as well. I tried it with setting a pasword already but nothing has worked so far. Anyway, I have Service Pack 2 and 1 installed, no further Addons but some Planes of course.

Could Anyone help me?

I've tried sharing planes with different types of Aircrafts already yes.

Thanks for your reply, I think I had it enabled when I hosted the Server.
Well I'll just try it again!

Its because your friend that wanna join your aircraft has to have the "share airplane" button turned off! Or else its just greyed out to him. But when you enable yours, and he disables he´s it will turn up black, so that you can join! Good luck. had the same problems myself when i tried with a bud of mine..

What..?

You both have Share Aircraft enabled, one of you need to disable it.
