Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

I just downloaded off the fsbuild.com page profiles for the Flight1 ATR72 and the Dreamfleet Bonanza A36, both of which I own.

I just started using FSBuild and I hadn't messed with aircraft profiles at all. Now I just downloaded the above aircraft and installed them per the instructions included with them (*.tld and *.prf files into FSBuild/Aircraft directory, and the *.jpg file into the FSBuild/Images directory). Also in the install instructions for the ATR it tells me to add these lines to my FSB_Aircraft.cfg file which I did:

[ATR72-500 w/ PW 127F] -- (Waggoner)--
WeightUnit=KGS
OperEmptyWeight=13500
PayloadWeight=
AlternateFuel=:45
HoldFuel=:30
ExtraFuel=:20
TaxiFuel=:15
ApproachFuel=20
MaxTakeoffWeight=22000
MaxZeroFuelWeight=20000
MaxLandingWeight=21850
MaxFuelWeight=5000
MaxCruiseAlt=25000
ImageFile=ATR72-500.jpg
PerformanceData=ATR72-500.prf
ToldData=ATR72-500.tld


The DreamFleet Bonanza doesn't say anything similar to that, so I just followed the install instructions for each one to the letter.


Anyhow my question is, how do I choose which aircraft profile is being used? When I click on the Aircraft tab on the left side of the screen, it brings up the profile for the ATR72 which I just downloaded, but I don't see any way of switching to a different aircraft? What if I want to switch to my Bonanza profile, or a different aircraft?

I use two aircraft profiles at present:
;************** FSBUILD-2 AIRCRAFT PROFILES ****************

To switch between them.
Start FSbuild, Options, settings, default aircraft, select the one you want, Save Configuration, Exit FSbuild, Start FSbuild .. new aircraft profile will be used now.
See attached screenshot.
