This may not be of interest to the bulk of you, but a simple little edit will allow you too use your fs9 (alphasim) a/c in fsx.
I must explain, i havent looked at the internals....ie , gauges etc, as that isnt what Im interested in ....but the outsides all work. Most look pretty good, others are a little dodgey by fsx standards.

All you do is load the a/c into sim objects/airplanes.....find the the panel cfg folder.....go to the very bottom and change the last 2 lines to read ....
SIZE_X=8191
SIZE_Y=6143
and the aircraft are flyable and not all flat looking.

You wont see a picture in the "select aircraft" folder, but there are ways around that as well. For me it dosent matter, as long as i can see the outside Im happy.

Thanks Adam......watch this space....TSR-2, Jag, .....

There is a Auto thumbnail generator for download somewhere or a link to tut making your own http://www.surclaro.com/article520.html

My way is just copying one from a default aircraft folder loading it up in mspaint or photoshop and sticking a screen shot re sized image of AC on top merge layer ,save out .bmp into the fs9 aircraft folder etc in FSX ..
