1. When you run the installer, the very first screen you will see will ask you to choose the version of Flight Simulator into which you wish to install the new paint scheme. As the file structures in Flight Simulator 9 and Flight Simulator X are different this is very important.

7. When the Load Manager starts press "Save". This will put the necessary entries into your aircraft.cfg file. Otherwise your new paint scheme will not show up in the Flight Simulator Select Aircraft menu.
