Anyone know of a way to edit the name of each plane under picture in FX. I don't want to pay for a shareware pgm only for it not to works in Windows 10 next month.

I stole this from another site.
I tried something and it worked perfectly. In the config file UI_Manufacturer, UI_Type, and UI_Variation is where the name under the aircraft thumb pictures comes from. I chose 1 aircraft from my selection and put silly words in each of those positions (Remember to backup your original config file) and the name of that aircraft was the silly words!
Let us know how you do.
