Hi,

Are you sure this download is for FS2002 ?

You didn't say where you got this file from & this is not always the case. José made a valid point & there's no need to get shirty. I did a site search for a380-800 & only came up with FS9 versions. If you're a little more specific someone might be able to help.

If it's definitely for FS2002 it might depend on your system. People have reported similar problems before with aircraft that worked perfectly on my own system. If I haven't experienced the problem myself it's difficult to suggest anything. I don't want to hazard a guess in case it upsets you.

What else can we do?  If, as Hagar and Saitek suggested, he just gave us a link to the download someone would have downloaded it by now and figured out his problem.  Wierd thing is it's probably just the usual gaugesound.dll or similar problem that we have encountered numerous times and could fix in a heartbeat.

Some people would just rather complain ...

Go to the folder in Windows Explorer that contains the Airbus.
Check the Readme and post the name of the creator.  Someone will be able to search Flightsim. com and other sites and download and check out the problem aircraft.

It was made by:
Panel by: A.Asensio
Model design and paint by: Camil Valiquette


Additional Info:
FS2002 Garuda Indonesia, Airbus A380 ProMX Version 2
The ver.2 added landing lights and new night textures to the long list of the
orignal ProMX like: cargo/luggages bay with night textures and opening cargo doors,
thrust reversed, wings and engines views from the cockpit with all the moving spoiler,
engines fans and leading edges, tilted landing wheels, front turning wheels,
3D cockpit with night textures and 3D landing gears bays.

kevinn5,

I found the aircraft at fsdome.com.

It should appear in your aircraft folder as "A 380 Garuda Indonesia MX 2."

From the download I put the above file in my aircraft folder.

It came up in the FS2002  "Select Aircraft " menu as Airbus - A 380 - Garuda Indonesia.

It launched perfectly at the runway.

I notice the Readme says "Unzip the CONCORDE.GAU in your FS2002 GAUGES folder" I didn't find any gauge zip in the download, but without the gauge you'd just have a black hole on your panel.

Couldn't get it to misbehave - sorry.

I also downloaded a 7-day trial version of the abacus.com premier collection concorde, but it didn't show up in the aircraft menu at all...

I just downloaded the Abacus trial Concorde to check it out. It's posted in 2 versions, for FS2000 or FS2002 so make sure you downloaded the correct file (AbacusConcorde_FS2002.exe). This is auto-install so should install itself correctly. The sound.cfg of the FS2002 version is aliased to the default b737_400 so it should work providing you didn't change the folder name of the b737_400 or delete it. The FS2002 Aircraft.cfg entries are missing so it will be listed under Unspecified as manufacturer on the FS2002 selection menu. My guess is that you're looking in the wrong place on the menu.

What do you mean "back up"? ???
