To get some of them to work. Open FSX. Go to Free Flight and change the current aircraft. HIGHLIGHT the Captain Sim 767 livery you want and then select DETAILS. In the Airline call sign: select the one you want. Then change Flight number: to the number you want.

e.g. Select 767-300 British Airways. Then details. Then in Airline Call Sign, select Speed bird from the list. Then in Flight number, type 763. The ones listed work.

I actually edited my aircraft.cfg and added the information into there. Here is the listing for my 737-300 RR British Airways:

[fltsim.5]

sim=B767-300RR
model=rr5

I have tried adding more without success. I believe that you need to modify something inn FSX to get more of the callsigns to be stated. I tried modifying the airlines.cfg by adding them. It didn't work. I went online and looked up the call signs for the airlines and tried adding those instead. It still didn't work.

In FS9 you needed to add them to the ATC voice commands using the SDK. I will look into how it needs to be done for FSX. I stopped trying after those attempts at doing it (as you can probably tell) and will look into it again.

Hope this helps.

Sorry for that. I didn't think to say what to use to open the files with.

I have set notepad as my default program for opening .cfg files, but that's my preference. I am also using Windows 7 Pro 64bit and I don't need to turn the User Account Control off (I can't say for other versions of Windows 7 as I don't have or use them), but those using Windows Vista (any version) will need to turn User Account Control off, like Michael said.

Sorry for not providing all the info.

In the main fsx menu there us a airlines.cfg file. Just type them into that and it works

The problem with that is, that the spoken airline calls are recorded from default. There is a certain amount of fictional liveries by default, and in order to change that, you must install a third-party addon. But, do not tremble! Here comes the EditVoicePack: http://www.editvoicepack.com/ (watch out not to install all of them - you might run short on disk space).

Markoz, I believe my doubt is solved.

Remark about this "How to": CS do not support neither modifications of the original package nor the issues caused by the modifications. Do it at your own risk.

How to do, step by step:

1) Open Windows Explorer > Program Files > Microsoft Games > SimObjects > Airplanes > CS_B767-300

2) Now, click one time on "Aircraft.cfg"

3) Click in "Files" (upper tool bar)

4) Click in "Edit"

A new window will open (notepad)

There is a list of all CS planes, numbered from 0 up to 13. The configuration of each model appears as below (the first one [fltsim.0]
is Aeroflot model):

[fltsim.0]
title=CS 767-300 Captain Paint0
sim=B767-300GE
model=ge5
panel=
sound=GE
texture=aeroflot
kb_checklists=
kb_reference=
atc_id=N764A
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=
atc_heavy=0
atc_parking_types=
ui_manufacturer="Boeing"
ui_typerole="Commercial Airliner"
ui_createdby="Captain Sim"
ui_type="767-300 GE"
ui_variation="Aeroflot"
description="767-300 Base Pack v1.4\n(c) 2009 Captain Sim www.captainsim.com"
ui_wglts=0

5) Go to 11th line (atc_airline=)

6) Add Aeroflot after the equal sign. So, the new 11th line will be: atc_airline=Aeroflot

7) Save the file

8) Start FSX, load a presaved flight, change the aircraft to "CS Aeroflot", choose a flight number (551) in "details", click "OK" and "Fly Now".

Now all ATC comm will be adressed, for example, to "Aeroflot 551", instead of default airplane's alphanumeric registration (Boeing N-764A).

Yes, Google solves almost all doubts. When I use FS, I turn on my laptop and during flights I search a lot of things, like routes, VORs, NDBs, etc.
