Getting Started


These are complex add-ons, and they will no doubt take some time before you learn how to fly them properly. We know that this process can sometimes be a little bit frustrating, so we created this Getting Started page that will make your kick off with the E-Jets fun and quick.

And remember, we are always here for you, so if you have any questions and you can't find the answer in the links below, do not hesitate to come and talk to us!

 
 
 
 

1. Installation

To install any of the aircraft or the bundled set(s), simply download the zip files from the store and extract the zipped folder(s) into .../X-Plane/Aircraft/… in a folder of your choice. 

  • We suggest that the folder name and path contain no non-Unicode characters. 

  • If you have more than one X‑Crafts product, you can have them all in one X‑Crafts sub-folder like this (X‑Plane/aircraft/X‑Crafts).

2. Running on macOS?

Due to Apple’s security settings, you’ll first need to allow our plugins to run (this is the same for any X-Plane plugin). Please read the instructions below.

 

3. Activation

You will need to activate your products before you can use them.

 

4. Demo flight

 
 

This is the best place to start. You can follow simple and complete instructions with videos to learn how to start the plane, program the FMS, use the EFB, and complete a full flight starting in from Bergamo in Italy, climbing over the Alps to then land in the Austrian capital Vienna.

 
 
 

5. Frequently Asked Questions

Most users run into the exact same issues while getting familiar with these aircraft, so we highly recommend that you read the FAQ before you start flying. This will greatly minimize the chance of you running into unexpected things and you will avoid unnecessary frustrations.

 

6. Tutorials

We made some additional more in-depth videos that you can watch to get started.

 

7. Manuals

If you really want to get a deeper understanding of these airliners, we strongly recommend that you read the manuals as they contain a detailed description of all the features included in the products.

You’ll find the manuals in the aircraft package, or alternatively you can download them below.

 

8. Tech Support
