I loaded three different addon seceneries; Cuba, Arizona and Purto Rico. The only one listed in the scenery menu is Cuba. There are three folders in the FXS addon scenery Directory corresponding to the three locations. In each of the folders are scenery and textures folders. The only thing different ablut the Cuba data is that there is also stuff listed in the FSX terrain folder in My Documents.

Any ideas why FSX can't see the addon scenery for Peurto Rico and Arizona?

When you add some sceneries in the addon scenery forlder, they do not immediately appear in the scenery menu of FS, unless an install program as done it automatically, which is quite rare.

The normal way consists in going to the scenery library in FS, and then press the button "add zone", select the root folder of your new scenery (the folder that contains "scenery" and "texture") and press OK. Then the addon scenery will appear in the list Smiley
