When you go to the aircraft list make sure that the box marked "show all variations" is checked.
It may show under a name that you didn't expect.

Installation:

  • Unzip downloaded files to a temporary folder
  • Copy & paste the "PA-42 Piper Cheyenne 400LS" folder into your Airplanes folder located by default as below:
    OS (C)/Program Files(x86)/Microsoft Games/Microsoft Flight Simulator X/SimObjects/Airplanes

  • Then open "PA-42 Effects" folder & copy & paste the "FX File" files into your FSX "Effects" folder & the "fx_pa-42" bitmap image into the effects texture folder located by default as below:
    OS (C)/Program Files(x86)/Microsoft Games/Microsoft Flight Simulator X/Effects

When I select PA-42 Piper Cheyene 40LS N313PC I get a message that the visual model could not be displayed.

Any help?
