I found a fltsim numbering mistake in the Plattsburg package. There are two number [fltsim.8] entries, making everything after the first #8 unused.
If you have Easycfg.jar it is a quick fix, as it correctly renumbers the entire list. I use it for all my renumbering, as it seems to have an unlimited quantity capability. I always combine all my repaints of a particular model into one folder, instead of having a couple thousand in the aircraft folder.

(I have a LOT of AI!)
PS I haven't been able to get ANY of the other renumbering programs out there to work on my system, except Easycfg.jar. It also checks for duplicate titles in the list, by the way.
The file name is EasyCfg.zip I don't remember where I got it, as the file does not have the avsim.diz or FILE_ID.DIZ usually in the zip if from avsim or flightsim.com. May have been Simviation.com. Anyway, it is from 2007, so it's been around awhile. Also, the readme does not have the author's name or contact info, so. It is a java program, so you must have that installed on your computer.

Found another one. maiw_mgai_kc-135a_28bw_ellsworth_afb_1982.zip has the last aircraft as number 12. Should be #11.
Will let you know if I find anymore.
These are minor problems. If they are all I find, I'd say you did a darn good job, Mark. Thanks again.
Edit: Found another. maiw_mgai_kc-135a_319bw_grand_forks_afb_1982.zip. In fltsim.4, the texture line reads "texture=59-1500 319" the " 319" should be removed, as well as from the title.
Please, these are NOT to be taken as criticisms. They are simple typos that are very easy to make, especially when doing so many paints. I will list any more here as I find them.
Don
Mark, did not find anymore.

Super , super work. Waited so long for all this Classsic Retro Mil to be born. The Past is The Future of AI
This is the start of the avalanche of paints.... but down the line will the MGAI KC-135E (i.e. AFRES) be covered also ?

Mark,
Will there be later year paints of the KC-135A's like you did with the FB-111's?
Great work on the repaints by the way!

I am going to have a blast with these old KC-135! Looking forward to loading up traffic at Castle AFB where I was given a couple of orientation rides back in late 80s.
