Bruce,

Yes - it was in the Aircraft folder.  There was literally nothing at all in the Panel folder.

It's just an impossible venture - I don't know why I can't get it working.

Sorry if I seemed to come on strong about it, its been almost a week with out flying, which is what the sim should really be about.  

Each of those models as well also had the XML file from the original aircraft folder.  

If there's any other theories, I'm welcome to it, but it's just utterly impossible for me, sadly - :(  A shame, I really wanted to enjoy this.

Again, apologies coming off strongly, I just needed to know what I was doing wrong, and wish I was told in the beginning, that's all.

By the way - update - reinstalled it, and also went with your directions again, it now works.  Thanks SO MUCH For your help.  Now I know what to do on future installs! Can't wait to use this now.   8-)

John
