i run G3.5 off of my laptop. it's really all i use this computer for. the drive is not huge. i've got 200mb of space left.

i've already installed expansion pack 1, but i'd rather have expansion pack 2 installed (i like those helis better).

is there any way to

A) selectively remove the expansion pack 1 airports, some planes and some helis? there's only a handful of planes and helis i like on pack 1.....or

B) remove expansion pack 1 altogether?

i'd like to get back to 500mb of free space before installing expansion pack 2....the amount i had before installing pack 1. as it is, there's not enough space to install expansion pack 2 at all :(

thanks.

figured it out. doesnt look like you can pick and choose. but, you can pull the whole pack. in case anyone else has the same question, in /Program Files/Realflight/Data there are files named:

RFEPx.DCK and RFEPx.ADJ

where 'x' is the number of your expansion pack. Just delete these files (or put on a thumb drive or another drive with more space for next time) and run another Expansion Pack installer.

Next time i want to use an expansion pack, rather than run the installer, i just copy the RFEP1.DCK file (in my case) back in the Data folder.

not very elegant, but quick. and, it works.
