I copied FS9 airplane to FSX.  Everything works fine except that the tail number does not show up on the airplane's external views.  I did try unchecking/checking 'show tail number' in the airplane details but it still didn't show up.  Are there any new settings in FSX that are missing from FS9 aircraft for the tail number display?
Thanks.

Though I am not 100% sure why you do not see the tail number but it could have to do with the differances between the way the modles are made for the two sims.

Thanks for the thought Gary.  The planes were a repaint based on FS9's own Cessna's.
I also noticed that the tail number doesn't show up on AOPA's Cessna Cardinal made for FSX.  But I believe that is intentional since the plane has a tail number in the paint job.
The problem might be with all add on's.

If all else fails you could add the detail manually in paintshop pro or similar......
