This makes me feel nothing but the utmost degree of pure hatred for myself, for being poor/cheap and not being able to afford a computer that will run FSX.

I say fie on all the naysayers! The very fact that FSX can allow such unique and astounding addons to come to light officially makes it a TREMENDOUS improvement over FS9 in my humble little book. Scenery errors be damned.

*prepares for his eventual lynching*

I'll be happy just to be able to orbit... as getting on the runway, even if it's a long one, will be a challenge, at least   for me Grin

From the FS-X  Aircraft COntainer SDK:

engine_type Integer that identifies what type of engine is on the aircraft. 0 = piston, 1 = Jet, 2 = None, 3 = Helo-turbine, 4 = Rocket (not supported) 5 = Turboprop. 

From this I take it that rockets are not supported, so if this is incorrect (and mind you, this is not from the "first release" of the SDKs and they might not reflect everything there really is in the flightsim, i.e., "undocumented features"), if FSX does support rocket engines, can you provide a hint on how to activate them?
