Boeing E4B

It doesn't seem to be my lucky day as I've had problems with this download from the FS2004 Civil Jets section; the zip file downloads but attempts to open tell me "invalid archive" which is one I haven't met before.

... the E4B? That's not a civil jet, it's a military version of the 747. It's basically a flying pentagon, there's always one on alert within 500 miles of the president ready to go in 10 minutes or less (If I remember correctly).

Anyway just fly a 747, from the flight deck I imagine it's pretty much the same airplane.

Mike, you know how to pick them - I concur, another dud. I've tried to extract with 4 different tools, no luck.
Head over to flightsim.com and get it from there, that one works

as you say - I certainly know how to pick them! My already thin hair was starting to feel entirely on the way out when I encountered one after another with something wrong. Thanks also for the Jabiru which I will deal with when I get back from playing church organ this morning.
