Overview[edit]
Access to the Menus in X-Plane is by mousing over the top of the screen making the Menu bar appear.

File[edit]
Open Aircraft[edit]
This menu option allows for opening an aircraft to the location your are currently positioned on, in the x plane world. Selecting this menu brings up the open/save (Aircraft) dialogue, while automatically pausing the sim.
The dialogue shows 4 main views/controls :
- A tree view of the aircraft folder on the upper hand which can be used as a visual reference.
- A pull down ( combo) control on the top for navigating the folders.
- A List box control listing the contents of the currently open folder.
- A cancel button to exit the dialogue at any point in time.
The pull down will list hierarchically (top most folder first) . Selecting any folder will open up that folder's contents in the list box control. Double clicking a sub folder in the list box will open up its inner contents and updates the tree view as well as the combo control. Navigate down to an aircraft's folder and click on the file with an "acf" extension to open the aircraft into the sim world.
The aircraft folders in X plane is organised in the fashion as mentioned below
The Root folder >> The Main Category folder >> <Specific aircraft's> folder
