I was reading the new issue of Delta Fly! and on page 4, it says the fleet is FSX compatible. Yet, there are not yet FSX models for the DC-9, Saab 340, ERJ-145 and E-Jets from the Delta fleet. Add to that the ATR-72, A310, 737 Classic, 747-100, 787, DHC-8, L-100, L-1011, DC-10, and MD-11. They may be compatible but it is not possible for those of us who only have FSX (at least for me, I get the error, no supported versions of Flight Simulator detected. Anyway to get around this? Would really love the ATR-72, E-Jets, and the BAe-146 (I know it's a AFV but I would like to fly it especially in and out of LCY).

You could try tricking the installers into thinking you have FS9 installed. Or you can download the aircraft and liveries straight from Avsim/Flightsim.

I have issues with some of the FSX compatible aircraft not working correctly in FSX. i.e.: Autopilot bank angle on the F70.

How can I do this? Thanks!

Try creating the folder Flight Simulator 9 under Microsoft Games. Then you will probably need to make an FS9.exe file in order to get the installer to recognize it.
