When using 7zip, NEVER choose 'Extract Here' because that will extract the files contents and spit out every single individual file within the zip, rather than creating a new, unzipped folder. Also, you don't have to select 'Extract to (whatever)', as selecting 'Extract files...' will essentially do the exact same thing. Just wanted to say that.
Hello Michael, I just viewed your Buying and installing video. I totally agree with you, you get what you paid for. I'm new to X Plane and have previously installed addons aircrafts and never had any issues. However, I purchased the Emirates A380 for X plane 11 and downloaded, placed unzip file to X Plane 11 aircraft folder, I then unzipped the file at this location, all good so far. I launched the game the A380 was available. I then get a message upper left conner " License key not found; place license key inside the directory of the aircraft acf-file". I located the called A388 acf pasted the key and still get the same message. Any suggestions.
Good night, I bought the boeing 727 at the xplane store when I started it, it asked me for the serial number to activate it but I don't know where to find it.
Hey Michael, Very nice video. Very helpful. But can i ask you if i follow the exact same instructions you showed by putting the files in the aircraft folder in X-Plane 11 and it doesn't show up in any thumbnail once i get into X-Plane, what do i do then? :-(

I tell you what, if im gonna pay $40-$60 for a fucking game, that says Flight Simulator, i expect it to have fucking planes on it already. Fuck that DLC shit. If youre gonna have DLC that serves a major part in playing the fucking game , in this case air planes in a fucking flying game , then the game itself should be free and the planes should be $60 for 60 planes.
I have tried your method for the 757-200 from flight factor for xplane 11 but it does not show up when i load up XPlane 11. I have tried everything as suggested by xfactor and xplane gurus but not working . Can you help please Thanks
I recently installed a few Aircraft mods, I unzipped them and put them in the Extra aircraft Folder, for some reason, when i start the game, those planes don't appear in the aircraft list. Ive restarted the game multiple times, reinstalled the mods multiple times still nothing seems to work. All of those mods worked for sometime and i even played with them but then suddenly they disappeared. (except the F/A-18E mod which i couldn’t find anywhere after i installed it.) Instead of extra aircraft i even tried extracting them in just the aircraft folder still it didn't work.
Does this method still work? I watched a few videos about how to download free planes from the x plane website, and I followed all of the instructions, but nothing would work... Apparently, the video was outdated, and now you cant even download the free planes!!! (X Plane website) So, I watched your video a few times and here's what I got from it... So basically all you have to do is buy the plane, then it will show up in a folder and then you drag and drop that folder into extra aircraft???? that's kind of like the free method... Also, Does it (The plane) automatically pop up in x plane 11?? I JUST WANT TO KNOW BEFORE I BLOW ALL OF MY BIRTHDAY CASH!!!!!!!!!! Please help me if you know :) Thanks!! ✈🎂
Don't bother. Moderators are rabid little fan boys and really not worth the trouble. You can find good aircraft elsewhere, just use a good search engine. Besides, the release of MSFS 2020 will kill X Plane 11 as it's just a glorified FSX.
2 issues: Does X-Plane11 have PlaneMaker still available to 'update' and build aircraft? X-Plane.org does NOT support purchases other than purchases through the computer. I can't purchase through the computer because of the hacker IN my computer. Malware software does not show or do away with this hackers' malware. (If it 'could" isolate it, by the time you get your computer shut down, his/her malware is right back on your machine.) I know, because he nailed me again after I had my machine completely de-gauzed and all software re-installed. I'm not EVER taking a chance with computer purchases again. I guess if I can't purchase X-Plane11, I won't. There doesn't seem to be a work-around on this.
Can someone help me out, I got the toliss a319 and I cant find any forum post which helps me. I contacted toliss and xplane and no reply, if you think u can help ask for my discord and ill send you more details and my log.txt. Please someone help, I dont wanna lose £50 on something which is probably a small problem
Hello, I also have the ToLiss A319. There are more than 1 file you have to unzip which is through the clicking of your download. Once you get to the part of all the liveries showing then click back. It should look like ToLiss319 or something and it should show up. If I wasn't clear please let me know.
@@TheTripReporter It turned out to be an even simpler problem, I heard from somewhere that you have to put the plugin folder into the plugins on xplane 11 and not just in the Aircraft folder, so that was the problem, the plugins kept duplicating.
None of my downloaded aircraft showed up on my Steam X-plane 11. Mind you other plug-ins seemed ok. Before anyone goes off and tells me that I'm a klutz and clearly don't know what to do, I'd just like to say that I'm not the only one who has had this issue... just do a google search and it pops up often. The folder is in the correct location, I've tried Aircraft and Extra aircraft. No aircraft install ....paid or free. Well, I wasn't going to let it get the better of me, so after some digging around I found out the problem. For whatever reason, I had 2 instances of Aircraft folder.one was in my D drive where the Xplane Steam files resided and that was where I put in the new aircraft files. With no success. But, on digging around I found another instance of Steam in my Program Files (x86). Putting my new aircraft files in that location did the trick. I've got no idea why I have 2 instances of Steam... never mind at least it works. Thanks Michael... you put me on the right track.
OF COURSE the FREE planes are CRAP and I will also tell you why, MONEY MONEY and MONEY because THAT is what X PLANE IS ESSENTIALLY ABOUT and the prices are EXPENSIVE!!! Give me my MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIM
Michael: “Free planes are crap planes”
Zibo: Hold my beer

Even cheap planes bought at x-plane.org can be crap!
he said there are exeptions

Thanks Michael ! Excellent video and information sir.
Thanks Michael, It worked as advertised.
You are awesome... this is a great video. Great knowledge. Gonna see if you have videos on Mesh Scenery install that looks like a major headache
That was helpful when you buy thanks Michael.

If you buy a plane will it work with the next version?

I play my x plane on my android phone. Is there a way to purchase and install aircraft on my phone?
Thank you. Clear instructions.
I see that you play world of tanks! One of my favorite games
Wait. So once you download it will show up in X plane?
I did this for some aircraft, but it’s still not working. Help?

Muito bom Michael o x plane 11 eu gosto muito de jogar o x plane 11 meu amigo
0:26 would say otherwise for the zibo 737 and 737 ultimate lol
I've tried to go on this website but it appears that it no longer exists
747 : i will hold my beer
I have winrar installed on my computer can i still add planes?
I downloaded three planes that I bought and still cant find them in xplane menu.
Sams
Do these priced planes also work in VR ?
yes. I used the zibo mod in VR before. so that means all custom installed planes should work in vr.
Is there a better Cessna 172 available than the one that comes with XP11?
You really don't know a thing called search do you, there are literally 2 better c172s avail be at or store
@@user-ld6is4ni3d - well, then tell me what they are. Which C172 would you choose? I would be grateful for your opinion.
@@user-ld6is4ni3d - Please, I am still asking, which do you think is better?
For some reason even though I do it all right I cannot get any plugins or addon aircraft to work, anyone know a solution?
They suspend my login. I don't know why? I did purchased to download x-plane 11, but I did not purchased any aircraft.
Why are they so expensive?
Because the people who made them worked hard to model, animate, and code the aircraft and want money for what they made. I don't see the problem
Gordo ok
Gordo yeah i know its a lot of work but 90$ seems a little bit too much for one plane
@@pizza_parker9689 try making JUST ONE little detail like one of those aircraft, you will see how hard it is. I think that is a reasonable price.
i tryed this and apparently i dont have an xplane folder
I tried to go on Xplane.org but it doesn't work. It's like it doesn't exist.
Don't bother.

what is a 530? 5:39
how do you get x-15
Does anyone know: Is there a refund policy for not incompatible files bough at x-plane.org?
Good luck.
Bunch of crooks IMO.
unless its a crap plane with an extravagant price .. say a $5 plane which the designers got up for $30..
i download my planes for free cause i downloaded a plane for 38$ and then i downloaded the same plane for free and it worked just like the 38$ one
i just pirated alot of my planes for free, i came to have fun in a flight simulator and not gonna spend 30$ on a plane that ill only use for 2 hours
Where is the Mac folder?
can you give me a link?
THX
What do I do when it says activation code

it easy to buy plane in the US but in other country is like hell
Why it's higher in price?
So go 737 is amazing and as good as quite a lot of payware
What I realized without the default 737 the zibo project would not have been possible
With virus? Are x-plane.org with virus or root?
No
Ok
how to i open a file in x plane
Peter Hager A380 vs. Zibo 737X *cough cough*
Why don't I have a aircraft folder?
You doxed your self
13mins!?
what about it ?
OF COURSE the FREE planes are CRAP
and I will also tell you why,
MONEY MONEY and MONEY because
