This is a quick three part tutorial on 1.How to change the position. 2.The name. and 3.Whether or not an aircraft is listed in the Quick Mission Builder (QMB) aircraft list.

All the nesserary files and their file structures are available in this Beta aircraft list mod here http://www.speedyshare.com/332893134.html

1. How to change the listed position.

You'll need an air.ini file located in this path MODS/planelist/com/maddox/il2/objects

If your still useing the "old" wrapper the path is Files/com/maddox/il2/objects
and com/maddox/il2/objects/air.ini would also need to be added to your filelist.txt

As it appears that some other mods have included an air.ini file, it may be prudent to run a search in your Mods or Files folder or both if your installed that way for air.ini before you start with this mod, to avoid clashes.

Open the air.ini file with a text editor, I use "EditPad" but Notepad or Wordpad will do fine. Scroll down and find the aircraft you want to move, for this little tutorial I've chosen to move "Rechkalov's P-39Q-15" available with this great mod (The link is inoperative)

Highlight and "cut" the whole line out...(may require a different technique in Notepad?)



Scroll and find the place you want to locate the aircraft, go to the end of the previous line and hit "enter" one time to give some space



Paste in the line you just cut out



Save the air.ini file and fire up IL2 to see the results. The 3 blade prop and cool default skin by defrag on a Kamikuza template are additional addons I've made myself.



Fine but the name doesn't fit so good, oh well...on to part two.
