I've downloaded today this magnificent Sabre from the first page of this thread and followed the installation instructions. I didn't find the mentioned fix, but I suppose that is now no more necessary.
Unluckily it does not work for me, i.e. the Sabre does not appear in the QMB!
I've inserted the line in the air.ini file, and I wonder if another line is necessary for the plane_ru.properties file.

Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks

Very important you make the Skin folder in the paintschemes main skin folder. I made that mistake on another acft and that was the problem with it not showing up. Also the air.ini file you need to update is the one located here:

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\IL-2 Sturmovik 1946\MODS\STD\com\maddox\il2\objects

Installation:
=============
1) Unzip the folder "XP-86 Sabre v1" inside your MODS folder.
It should look like this:

C:\Program Files\IL2 Sturmovik\MODS\XP-86 Sabre v1\3d0\...etc

2) Create a folder called SABRE in your PaintSchemes\skins\ folder.
It should look like this:

C:\Program Files\IL2 Sturmovik\PaintSchemes\skins\SABRE\

3) Drop any skins you want to use into that folder.

Make sure when adding the below entry, you put it in alphabetical order with the rest of the planes listed there.
4) Add the following entry at the end of your air.ini file:

SABRE air.XP_86 NOINFO usa01 SUMMER
