-Im sorry webby but with the text documents the model makers etc also force you to include 300kb is way too small given the norm for a zip file is around 1-2Mb now adays for M$ Flight Sim at least.
Also called Aircraft Textures in Flight Sim world not "skins" :p :p

-Continueing with the idea of a Keymags FS server, since alot of nice plane downloads on simviation.com, avsim.com and flightsim.com are freeware. Keymags could provide a collection of these downloads for us to use on the server since the default planes are absolutely the worst. And of course you would need to have these planes in your FS files in order to see others flying them. And if there is anyone out there with a spare computer with decent specs and an ample computer conection, maybe they can volunteer to provide such a server for everyone here.
Id like to mention the following files get deleted out of my FS Aircraft folder because I cant stand to see them: Curtiss Jenny, DeHavilland Comet, Lockheed Vega, Spirit of StLouis, Wright Flyer, Vickers Vimy, Ford Trimotor. And if anyone can tell me how I can change the Cessna Skyhawk from being the opening default so I can delete it, Id appreciate it.

-Depends, skins could relate to sims, there are several sites that provide IL2 skins. A skin is just a nerdy word for a full model texture :eek:

-Here is a good place for cheap server hosting. $2,50 per slot a month for private BF42 servers :)

Simply changing aircraft and saving the flight should do it (check the box 'make this the default flight') although a better idea would be to install the Real Air C172 (an improved version/mod for the default aircraft)

Where can this improved C172 be found and is it freeware?

IIRC they link to the AVSIM library. Yes it is freeware, don't expect a dazzling new 3d model though as it is an upgrade to the default models flight dynamics. Well worth downloading, but don't forget to RTFM !

BE VERY CAREFUL of deleting the default Flightsim airplanes!!!! Many 3rd party downloads *may* alias sounds, etc., to the default planes, so by your deleting them, you may come across a model that will not load because the sound, etc., doesn't appear.
Also, these airplanes contain "period" gauges that some 3rd party builders can reference.
If you don't like the default planes, don't use them, but DON'T DELETE THEM!

We have enabled the forum to allow for uploading of skins for aircraft from various flight sims eg Flight Simulator 2002/2004, il2-Sturmovik, Lock-On, Combat Flight Sim etc.
Please post the skin in this thread so we can build up a library of skins.
Please lay you post out in the following way:

There is a limit of 300K per zip file.
