Simply unpack the downloaded scenery into your <tt>[[$FG_ROOT]]/Scenery</tt> directory, using software like [http://www.winzip.com/ Winzip] or [http://www.7-zip.org 7-zip]. Do not forget to press the "Refresh" (German: "Neu Laden") button on the airport selection page, when using the [[FlightGear Wizard]].

"Modern" Windows Versions (e.g. XP, Vista, Win7) tinkering a lot with user rights on access level. Therefore it's a bad idea to install and run FlightGear to and from "C:\Program Files" (German: C:\Programme). Find another drive / folder where you as logged in user have all neccesary right to read, write and execute the files you installed. Additionally there's a space / blank in folder's name which could cause weird behaviour. Use something like "C:\FlightGear".
