Good evening fellow pilots! It's me Kelvin again , I came by to ask you something that I have in mind since I joined a couple days ago. In Delta Virtual Airline , it's obvious after certain amount of flight your able to move up stage. Outcome of being able to fly much more complex aircraft. Well my computer is rather very strange. I can't really install aircraft from simviation.com or avsim.com , well you might be thinking I still can download aircraft from either Delta Virtual Airline website or buy the payaware aircraft. Well I can't really do both because Delta's aircraft has no VC installed making it hard for me to fly the aircraft. Payaware is just very expensive. My question is what can I fly when I get to stage III , I know I'm still able to fly the 737-800 but is it posible if I can fly the 747-400 all the way to stage IV? Don't get me wrong I really do want to fly the 757/767. It's just that I'm unable to install it. Or there's no VC.

There are 4 stage 3's 757-200 767-300 727-200 and DC-6 747-400 is stage 4, the only Delta plane i know of that has a VC is the CRJ's and if you have FSX still set on 3D cockpit view as your only view go to Options then to View Options and you can change it there so you can see a 2D panel.
In order for you to fly the 747 you'll need the rating to do so.

Kelvin u move up stage wise in aircraft by getting rated in an aircraft in that stage. A 747 is a stage 4 aircraft and therefore you would not be able to get rated in it until u get rated in a stage 3 aircraft like the 757/767 and many others. Read the promotion manual in the pilots center/ document library for a better explanation

Yeah I know what you meant , but that's not the problem for me. The problem is that I cant download the 757/767. What aircraft can I replace those aircraft with?

This might help if you are having problems installing the 757 or 767 on your system.
To install the 757 fleet airplane,
1. Turn off all antivirus and antispyware software on your system.
2. Uninstall the 757 from your control panel "Add/Remove Software".
3. Download and run the Registry Fixer from our Fleet Library to restore your registry pointers to Flight Sim.
4. Reboot your computer and again turn off all antivirus and antispyware software on your system.
5. Download the 757 from the DVA Fleet Library and run the install.
6. Now you can re-enable your antivirus and antispyware software on your system.
7. Reboot your computer.
This B757 plane starts with most of the panels showing to initialize the aircraft. Don't try to change this configuration or some of your instruments or the plane might not work correctly.
This should get the plane installed.

Better yet, spring for a payware plane, makes the whole experience SO much nicer
