If you are looking for information to decide what aircraft to download, try [[Table of models]] or [[Aircraft]]. External links to third party aircraft can be found at [[FlightGear hangars]]. Remember that the latest aircraft may not load with previous versions, so look for older aircraft in the links section.

== Invisible model ==
If you start FlightGear with the new plane you installed and there is no cockpit or exterior, this may be because the XML files are in the wrong encoding.
To fix this on linux try this:
$ cd path/to/aircraft/directory/
$ find . -name "*.xml" -print | xargs sed -i 's/<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>/<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>/g'
