thumbnail pics of aircraft on startup

[naplesAPF]

Don't know if this might be the place to ask my simple question, but hope it's okay here.
Noticed when you 1st startup the FG app, on the list of planes available for you to use, some don't have a thumbnail, or have "thumbnail not available pic". Have looked through all the xml files of plane and can't figure out where in the code one should put the link for a thumbnail pic so you can see a pic of the plane when FG app starts up? Am trying to learn If anyone can help. Thannks in advance,

If I understand your question correctly, I think you're looking for the 'preview' images that are shown in the launcher. They can be added to an aircraft by adding a <previews> section in the <sim> section of an aircraft-set.xml and pointing to images somewhere in its folder using <preview> tags. See the wiki for documentation.

Edit: if you just want the thumbnail: it's also in the wiki article: just put a 171 x 128 pixel JPEG file, named "thumbnail.jpg" in the aircraft root directory.

That is a thumbnail picture. Make a 172x128 pixel image, name it thumbnail.jpg and place it in the root folder of the aircraft. So if the aircraft is in the folder c172p, you place the thumbnail.jpg in Aircrafts/c172p. That's all you have to do.
