I have installed a new AI flight plan for Thai Airways using TTools.

I am not sure what to do with the AI aircraft however. There are several lines for each aircarft as follows:

AC#1,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 GE"
AC#2,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 PW NC"
AC#3,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 PW OC"

Do I put these into the TITLE section of the aircraft.cfg file and do I need a seperate one for each as follows:

[fltsim.0]
title=AC#1,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 GE"
sim=A300
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=Thai Airways
....
....

[fltsim.1]
title=AC#2,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 PW NC"
sim=A300
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=Thai Airways
...
...

Im pretty sure under the title line all you need would be [Lets say fltsim.0] 'Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 GE' and so forth. The AC#1 only relates to your flightplans.txt and aircraft.txt folders so it knows which aircraft to use, and the title in the aircraft.cfg relates to the 3rd part of your aircraft.txt, and finally, 200 represents the maximum cruise speed (dont quote me on that). So in the end what you would end up with is:

AIRCRAFT.TXT (To be compiled with TTools)

AC#1,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 GE"
AC#2,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 PW NC"
AC#3,200,"Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 PW OC"

AIRCRAFT.CFG (Root aircraft folder)

[fltsim.0]
title=Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 GE
sim=A300
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=Thai Airways
....
....

[fltsim.1]
title=Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 PW NC
sim=A300
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=Thai Airways
...
...

[fltsim.2]
title=Thai Airways International Airbus A300-600 PW OC
sim=A300
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=Thai Airways
...
...

Hopefully that explains it Wink
Please direct your complaints to the moon, they might care there.

Many thanks

I worked out that first I need to install the AI flight plan. I used Lee Swordy's TTools (excellent product, very easy to use) and either used existing AI aircraft or created new ones, simply adding or changing the title as you say (hence if there are 4 747 titles, create 4 sections in the aircraft.cfg file).

Well worth the effort - I now have many Thai and Bangkok Airways aircraft at Bangkok, and have signifcantly increased aircraft at many far east airports (Beijing, Shanghai etc).
