Flamingo,
Welcome. FS2004 and FSX requires that the model be compiled using FS's compiler (makemdl or XtoMdl). The input to that is an .x file. You will need to export in that format or to a format that another design tool uses that can export in the .x file format.
You will find help and more info here:

Good luck and have fun.
