I am doing a manual install of this package and in step one it says to delete the file “Traffic_USAF_ANG_AKIslands_Eielson.bgl” from your “Flight Simulator 9/Scenery/Scenery” folder. If I do that will I loose all of the C-130's from that Alaska ANG package? Cause I don't want to loose those

Never mind. I did not realize there were 2 files with similar names. Traffic_USAF_ANG_AKIslands_Eielson.bgl and Traffic_USAF_ANG_AKIslands.bgl

Another great package, thanks!
Just Henry's name at Avsim front end is misspelled ... it's 13 ... why should it be 13?

could one of you post the aircraft.cfg of the F-16C and F-16D ?
Maybe I can determine what is wrong

That is actually the problem, Tom. I have the textures but my aircraft.cfg did not change.

well as I'm at work I can't reproduce the aircraft.cfg.
the error is in the aircraft.cfg and can be fixed easily if I can get my hands on a aircraft.cfg file that is ok.
Could some try to extract to a manual installation and see if the aircraft.cfg does come out ?

Yes, it does, Tom

Here are the two F-16 aircraft.cfg files produced on a manual installation, I've renamed them for obvious reasons........
Edit:- file removed to avoid confusion with the corrected file.

post them please, so I can take a look at them

Go back one Tom, they are there now.

okay, these confirm that this is the problem I was thinking.
F-16's have the problem that the flightsim entries in the aircraft.cfg were spelled [Fltsim.0] instead of [fltsim.0]
Since the first letter was a Capital F the installer doesn't recognise them as fltsim.x entries.
So in order to fix the problem of the F-16's not turning up in the aircraft.cfg is in the problem above.
Fix to cure the problem until the correction is available:
do a normal install first
then do a manual install and open the aircraft.cfg's for the F-16C and D in that installation.
Do a FIND and REPLACE on both files and change [Fltsim.] to [fltsim.]
Then copy the aircraft entry's to the aircraft.cfg's in your WoA_HTAI_F-16C and WoA_HTAI-F-16D folders on your system.
this should fix the problem until the fixed package has been uploaded.
in the attachement you can find 2f-16 cfg files that have the issue corrected
