I want to add some military aircraft to my flight simulator 2002 but I have no idea how to do this or where to start. I'm not exactly a computer genius either. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great, thanks!

So first of all you have to download the aircraft that you want to add. You can do that at simv.com. t is allways a good idea tocreate a new folder on your dsktop or where ever you want it to be. Call this folder somethink like FLIGHT SIMULATOR DOWNLOADS. Now when you download add on's you can save them stright in to here so you know where they all are. Now how to install them, insead of me try to explain it all how about trying this website. www.simviation.com/acinstall.htm
Hope that this will help. And safe flying. And also welcome to the forums.

Happy New Year All

Ok, I read that post and went to the main help site, but that doesn't exactly tell me how to get the gauges in the game. I know how to do the aircraft. What do I do differently with the gauges? Thanks again!

Usually you will get a help file with the download giving installation instructions.

If you download an aircraft with its own gauges (.gau files) then just place them into the gauges folder.

c:\program files\microsoft games\fs2002\gauges

Like Brittannia said, www.simviation.com/acinstall.htm is probabally the best. I taught myself from there. Have it open in your browser or print it out and follow step by step. Don't try to do too much at onceor youll confuse yourself like I did. And about the gauges, have the downloaded guage unzipped, instead of going into going into "aircraft" go into "guages" and replace the file. Happy simmimg.
