Can't get rid of old .air file

I have a problem with the old .air file in my CRJ. I’m quite sure that it shouldn’t be required anymore, but when I remove it from the aircraft folder, aircraft.cfg and project definition XML (it’s listed as an additional file under |), the model doesn’t show up in the list of aircraft anymore. In other words, there has to be some dependency to the old .air file anywhere. However, it doesn’t seem to be documented and console log errors don’t help.
I would love to get rid of it as I doubt that it’s of any use, so any hint would be welcome.

Thanks,
Hans

Hello @HansHartmann,

Can you filter the console messages on “CRJ” to see if errors are flagged during the initial loading of the aircraft? I suspect you have a mandatory parameter that is not defined in the CFG but is provided through the AIR file - there are still a few things like this in the code which date back to FSX. We need to make an inventory & document these.

Best regards,

Eric / Asobo
