Manage Aircraft Names, Models and default image

Adding aircraft it will be necessary to define some general information about a specific model. This information is generally the same for a specific model. To effectively achieve this while saving you time and ensuring things are displayed in a consistent manner for all aircraft we have a section where you will define the “default” information for a specific model.

Part of this is to upload a “default file image”. This will automatically be used if you add an aircraft to your database and you do not have a photo available for the aircraft.

To manage this information Login into the website and navigate to Admin > Dashboard > Aircraft Sales Module > Aircraft Names and Models.

• Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click “add new” to add a new model.
• Click the “edit” button to edit/update an existing model

The page is fairly self-explanatory with only a couple of points to discuss.

• Type
  Select the aircraft “type” from the drop-down. The information in this drop-down is maintained according to this Configure Aircraft Categories article
• Manufacturer
  Select the Manufacturer from the drop-down. This information in this drop-down is maintained according to this Configure Aircraft Manufacturers article
• General Information
  We list some of the important general information. Please complete as complete as possible.
• File Photo
  Upload a default image that will be used in place of the actual aircraft photo if it is not available. This photo will be resized proportionally to max 640px wide. A good idea it to use this website to resize the image before you upload it to ensure it displays as you intend.
• Description
  Use this field to expand as much as you need to describe the aircraft as accurately as possible. If you need to use a table to display tabular information, please refer to this article discussing adding tabular data into responsive Xms Systems.
