three things i can come up with you probably did wrong:

1. you say you gave your a/c's a number in the aircraft.txt file. good, but keep in mind that the numbers of the aircraft are the same as the ones in the specific flightplan that a/c has to fly.

2. when you set your time, make sure it is zulu time or local time, or system time,... (don't know which one but lots of people have problems with that)

3. make sure your "title" of every aircraft in the aircraft.txt file corresponds with the title in the aircraft.cfg file.

example:
in my aircraft.cfg file of the PAI A319 i find the following:

[fltsim.3]
title=PAI A319 AFR (->look beneeth)
sim=pai319v2
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=AFR
kb_checklists=
kb_reference=
atc_id=
atc_id_color=0xffffffff
atc_airline=AIR FRANCE
atc_flight_number=0001
ui_manufacturer=Project AI
ui_type=Airbus A319
ui_variation=Air France
atc_heavy=0
description=Project Ai A319 Only for use with Ai Traffic!

in the aircraft.txt file you must find:
AC#39,450,"PAI A319 AFR" (the same as the 'title' above!!!)

it's very easy: you have an aircraft in your aircraft folder. you link this aircraft to an aircraft number in your aircraft.txt file (with the title) and you link every aircraft in the aircraft.txt file to a flightplan (with the AC#... number)

hope this helps, if not, please ask again.

For starters try changing your aircraft.txt file to read

ac#37,211,
"
Shorts SD3-60_AI_Sunstate
"


etc

And your posting was full of extra spaces - if they are in your aircraft.txt file take em out, they could be affecting it

you put in the right folder, but take a look into the folder of that aircraft. which folders do you find there (model, texture, panel, sound) or only a texture folder?
