A problem has arisen with some of my downloaded aircraft. When 'fly now' is selected, the programme shuts down. I can get the aircraft loaded by loading the default aircraft, coming out of full screen, and then selecting the aircraft of choice. However, if full screen is now selected, the programme shuts down. Any ideas?

how many aircraft have you download in the past week? and what are they and a link to where you got them from.

one of the planes that you downloaded sounds like it has a corrupt file somewhere in it and that may be a cause to your problem. like a gauge is messed up or a texture file is missing.

Thank you for your comments. I had just completed a Windows re-install when this problem occurred Prior to the re-install, I copied all my aircraft, gauges, effects. scenery, etc to a 'holding' file. I am now in the process of re-loading from the 'holding' file. So far. the problem has shown up with the B-47E, Bonanza, Belfast, and one or two others. In the case of the B-47E. I did a complete re-download and re-install - same problem. I now propose to go through the panel files to see if I can identify the fault.

I assume this means you have a new install of FS9. Could the problem be related to the FS9.1 update? Just a thought.

Thank you, Hagar. Yes, the 9.1 update is installed. It is on my check list immediately after the programme re-install -learned from bitter previous experience. One thing I have discovered is that my re-install did not include the infamous gauge sound dll. That may not be the cause but its ommission will certainly not have helped. The investigation continues.......

Further checked. The gauge sound dll was to blame
