If there is a readme file have a look there for instructions, otherwise try change to more obvious names like renaming for example "A320-master" to "A320" or "boeing-707" to "707".  If that does not work ask around on the [[Howto:Multiplayer#Multiplayer chat|multiplayer chat]], [[FlightGear IRC channel|IRC]] or on the [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewforum.php?f=11 forum].

==== Installing From Git Repo ====
If you have downloaded a *.zip file of an aircraft from github or other online repository you must rename the extracted folder name and remove the -[branch] tag. The folder name must correspond to the [/b]<aircraft>[/b]-set.xml file contained inside of the extracted folder. This is something that git automatically does when you download a zip file. The better way would be to learn and use git
$ git clone http://repo.address/here.git
