The FSX Airplane Drop Down List Is All Messed Up

[casey jones]

I ask for Japanese planes and I get British Planes

I ask For General Aviation Planes and I get All Helicopters

This has been in error for God knows how long, it seems
no one is paying attention.

I would try renaming the FSX configuration file, it will reset everything back to defaults. Depending on where you installed the flight sim, here are the default locations.
If you've got XP: C:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\(Your Windows User Name)\Microsoft\FSX

If you've got Vista/Win 7: C:\Users\(Your Windows User Name)\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX

And if you have Windows 8, 8.1 or 10: Hit your Windows key + R (Or open Run from the Start menu), type %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX

Note that you'll have to tick on 'show hidden files/folders' under folder options. Otherwise you'll not be able to see these hidden files.



P.S. When editing your fsx.cfg, don't forget to make a backup first...
