Thanks for continuing feedback, but sadly, no 182 after copying it into my OFFICIAL/STEAM folder, it is still missing from my aircraft when I try to select a new aircraft for free flight.
As to why it is in Community, I guess I put it there in desperation trying everything to get this aircraft to show up in FS ? I have tried so many things so far, but nothing works.
FYI there are also a bunch of “hi altitude airstrip” files in there that also used to work, but now do not show up in the world map, so it is not just the 182, it seems to be generic.
Here is a section of this same folder content for you to see what is in there.
BTW there are NO 3rd party files of any known type in here, just the default M$ stuff as far as I can see.
