Well im really enjoying my flights here at Rainbird.but I cant get the textures to install as i have never done this before always been lucky with instsalling the whole aircraft any help would be appreciated as flying non rainbied aircraft is taking alot of realism aways and thanks in advance

Hi Ken, Ken here
Two things to do after downloading a texture.
1. I normally unzip the downloaded file to a temp folder. Then go to that temp folder and you should see a folder marked "Texture.RBD or some other extension after "Texture". Copy that folder (do not open it just copy it)into the specific aircraft that you will be using.
2. You should have another "text file" with that download. Open the text file; It should look something like the one below. Copy the entire text.
In the aircraft folder that you placed the Texture.RBD in you will see a "aircraft.cfg". Open that with a text editor.
You will see other [fltsim.xx] in there with sequential numbering. Just paste the text fie you copied below the last [fltsim.xx] entry replace the "xx" with the next number. Save the changes. You should be good to go.

pm me if you run into a problem.

description=With backing from the Canadian government, de Havilland Canada began in late 1972 the development of a larger capacity short/medium range Short-Take-Off-and-Land (STOL) transport that would provide the higher standards of comfort to be found in much larger airliners. Designated DHC-7, and later named Dash-7, the first of two pre-production aircraft (C-GNBX-X) made its maiden flight on 27 March 1975. The first production aircraft (C-GNBX-X) was flown on 20 May 1977 and about 100 are in service.
