Im trying to add payload sections to the c 130, because it doesnt have anything in the payload section. Not even for pilots, so when I fly it the only weight it has is fuel, with no way to add any kind of payload. even with full fuel there is still room for 25, 000 lbs of cargo, which I would like to fill  Wink
 

I am somwhere I don't know where I am!!!&&

Not sure if you really want to do that as you can always adjust both fuel and cargo by clicking on the change fuel payload section after selecting a aircraft. but if you do then this is where you would make the change
[WEIGHT_AND_BALANCE]
max_gross_weight = 20450.0                      // (pounds)
empty_weight = 11700.0                          // (pounds)

reference_datum_position     =   34.5,  0, 0    // (feet) distance from FlightSim Reference position, which is: (1/4 chord, centerline, waterline)
empty_weight_CG_position     =  -35.79, 0, 0    // (feet) longitudinal, lateral, vertical distance from specified datum

max_number_of_stations = 50

station_load.0  = 170, -17.0, -1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.1  = 170, -17.0,  1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.2  = 170, -22.5, -1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.3  = 170, -22.5,  1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.4  = 170, -26.7, -1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.5  = 170, -26.7,  1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.6  = 0,   -30.9, -1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.7  = 0,   -30.9,  1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.8  = 0,   -35.1, -1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.9  = 0,   -35.1,  1.2, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.10 = 100, -42.0,  0.0, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
station_load.11 =  50, -45.0,  0.0, 0.0     // Weight(lbs), longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet)
This is the Aircraft cfg file of the default Lear jet.
I must caution you changing anything here can cause major issues with aircraft performance I strongly advise you that you save the aircraft cfg file someplace safe just in case. because a little change here can have a huge effect.
Trust me it is better you leave this alone unless you know what you are doing. Cool
