Hey there,
I myself have that aircraft, and found that after manually installing it into the "FS9" => "Aircraft" folder, it wasn't in the "select aircraft" list when I fired up FS9.
Why?
In the .CFG, it states there are
two textures. However, I believe that in the package, only
one texture is there.
So, all you have to do is open up the file entitled "aircraft" in the main folder of the PA28. Open "aircraft" using notepad. You'll find something that looks like this:
[fltsim.0]
title=Piper Cherokee 140 OY-CSF
sim=piper_pa28_140
model=CSF
panel=CSF
sound=
texture=CSF
kb_checklists=piperPA28chk
kb_reference=
atc_id=OYCSF
ui_manufacturer=Piper
ui_type=Cherokee 140
ui_variation=Charlie Sierra Foxtrot
description= The PA28- series includes some of the most successfull aircrafts in private aviation. Designed to compete with cessna´s 170-series, the first Piper PA28, the PA28-140 Cherokee, was designed in the sixties.
Many pilots have build up their flying expierience on the 140 before replacing the cherokee with larger models in the PA28 series.

This variation has wheelcaps, improving the flow of air around the wheels.

All you have to do is delete the section entitled "[fltsim.0], and you'll be left with this:
[fltsim.1]
title=Piper Cherokee 140 OY-DHD

Rename this section "[fltsim.0]" instead of "[fltsim.1]", save changes, fire up FS9 and it should work!
Hope this helps

P.S.S. does my post make sense?
