How about making a textures only section? After all some people download a texture set thinking it was the whole aircraft. I for one have done this on a few occasions. It can be rather confusing when you have them blended in with the aircraft. Just a thought really. Kind regards, Jeremy

yes, as a matter of fact, I have thought of that many times, but each time, I found a problem.  Think about all the hundreds of thousands of diffrent textures and airplanes uploaded to SimV.  With as many as there are, it would probably take years to do it.

I really have been thinking about it Lips Sealed Club508 said it all.
But sometimes it gets kinda annoying when you're looking through military planes section and More than half of them are textures Sad
 

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

I can ditto that.  Especially when using the search function.

I've just thought, Maybe if you take all the files From the airplane Sections with the required file thats not in the Panel, Gauges, misc E.t.c And move them in Tongue

This has been suggested many times before chaps, unfortunately the sheer number of files involved would reduce most to a quivering jelly!
The search works just fine as long as you put what you want in Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!
